Sitting in my home office looking out the window, I notice that the trees are beginning to lose their leaves. And next week on December 25th, much of the world celebrates a very significant birth. So today’s thoughts are on what we have to let go of in order to allow new things to be born in us.
Most people I have worked with have a hard time accepting what I view as the very natural cycles of life. Holding on and letting go; gaining and losing.
Mostly we want to keep a very tight grip on the things in our lives that have given us meaning, definition, and security. These could be things like ‘our stuff,’ relationships, beliefs/ideas, and our sense of self.
And yet, the tree in my front yard holds onto nothing, knowing only that it’s now in the cycle of allowing the old leaves to drop and die ... and that in the spring there will be new life.
So let me ask you… what are you holding onto right now, that somewhere deep down you know needs to be let go of? What would you be afraid may happen if you just surrendered to the Divine Intelligence that is organizing your life and business?
As we come to the end of the year, I’d encourage you to make a list of the four areas that you may be holding on to. Write anything that comes up for you, and then ask yourself this most powerful question: “What does keeping this cost me?”
For example, you may have a belief you are holding onto that you really can’t charge more for your services, and I bet you could certainly figure out not only the financial, but also the self esteem cost for that one. Ask that question for each item and you will create a powerful breakthrough for yourself.
Trust me… this exercise is way more powerful than creating New Year’s resolutions, and will serve you so much more! And even though the holidays stimulate my personal thoughts around the process, if you will address the different areas of your life periodically throughout the year in this same manner, you will move more quickly away from things that no longer serve you … leaving room for the new things that take their place.
