The Power Of Letting Go
Why is it so underestimated and still so difficult?
"Let it go." These words are so easily said, but what does it truly mean? Maybe you've been in a situation where you heard those words and were still full of anger about someone.
Why is letting go so powerful, and what can we learn from it?
We will examine those questions, but first, I want to define what I mean by letting go.
It doesn’t mean nothing happened, especially as you are boiling inside and the pressure rises, ready to explode. Trust me, this is not a “fake it until you make it” message.
I’m referring to the process of going through what’s bothering you and rising above it. This process is like a phoenix that rises from the ashes. It’s an acceptance that lets you accept the situation, not fake your way through it.
Easing the pressure
Letting go may begin with anger, but it doesn’t stop there. The root of the issue is that something is bothering you, leaving you with an uncomfortable feeling. The main problem is that it bothers you. If the situation bothered everyone, they would also be bothered. The key to this is that whatever is annoying you must not become an annoyance to others, and vice versa.
