The Power of Letting Go Before We Feel Ready

Do you want something particularly heart-wrenching? Is there a longing in your soul?

A client of mine has this. She wants a partner. A life mate.

And she’s been courageously taking action to get out in the world in a new way to meet new people. Life meets us at the point of action.

But…even though she’s been taking action on the outside, she’s been holding back on the inside.

See, she’s been in an ‘undefined’ relationship with a man for five years. She’s been hanging onto this relationship for all kinds of reasons. What if there’s nothing better out there? What if she lets it go and no one else comes in to fill the space?

My question to her was along the lines of: How’s that working out for you?

She laughed. 

“Not great.”

We are using the perfect system for whatever result we are getting. 

Want a different result? Change the system.

She is bravely taking the step to clean up and end that undefined relationship. 

She’s making space for the right person. And is filling up her life and herself with activities and understandings that help her experience happiness–even without a partner.

It’s so brave. It’s so gutsy.

I’m cheering for her.

We all benefit from this: letting go of what’s not working to create space for what might. Bravely taking a leap without knowing exactly where we will land.

I’ve seen time after time how things work out when we do this. How Life meets us, helps us land, and carries us forward.

With love,
