The caveat is that you must be willing to let go of the old in order to make way for the new. Here’s a point worth considering. Your current view or belief had to be acquired at some stage of your life. It might have been during your formative years or later in adolescence or even your adult years. You might have adopted these beliefs from those in authority, family members, loved ones, carers, teachers, or others.
Are they serving you right now? In order to answer this question, whatever is causing you turmoil in your life right now is at the heart of an unresolved belief. By that I mean, if you desire to be in a loving relationship and yet remain single or continually attracting the ‘wrong’ person, your belief around relationships is inaccurate and needs to change. In order to change it, you need to drop the belief and form a new one that serves a better belief for your new life.
Allow me to use an example. If you seek love, give more love. Giving love may mean sending loving thoughts to others, caring for the sick, weak or doing some volunteer work. The expression of what you desire is the foundation of your manifestation. Become that which you wish to attract and see in your life. Become the embodiment of those qualities.
So in order to let go and trust, you must be willing to give something away in order to acquire something new. That something new cannot dwell in the same place as the old, otherwise, there is conflict. This is highlighted by the simplicity that love and fear cannot reside in the same mental space. You must let go of fear in order for love to find a home in your heart. Letting go of something you’ve come to know for a long time is possibly the hardest thing to do. One of the biggest challenges lies in surrendering to the unknown.
It is the unknown which frightens you the most since you’re stepping into unchartered waters. Consider that you were once in unchartered waters when you adopted the same belief now which no longer serves you. One of the laws of the universe implies that creation unfolds at a level of uncertainty. Life doesn’t know what it will become until you step into it.
If you have a problem right now which you cannot work through, turn it over to the universe knowing and trusting that it truly has the right answer for you. Remain open and detached from how or when the solution will present itself. It might come in a form that you may not expect; remain poised and ready to be guided. The more you practice this way of being, solutions will show up when you least expect them. They often show up with very little effort on your part, other than taking inspired action.
Start small and don’t expect quick results. Whatever you face right now, trust for a moment that your needs will be taken care of. I often practice this way of being, since I’ve learned to let go of conscious control of a problem by handing it over to the universe. It felt unrealistic at first, yet the more I trusted, the more evidence the universe showed me that my needs were being met. It was like learning to communicate in a new language. The more you practice, the more evidence you’ll see that your efforts are not in vain.
What have you got to lose? If things aren’t working for you at present given YOUR current approach, then be willing to try something new and different.
Remember: Let GO and GET OUT OF THE WAY!
