Learning to let go will bring happiness

Sadly, we are taught from early on to always be in control.

My whole life I thought control = happiness

Then a few years ago I had no choice but to let go and discovered the truth.

Here are 3 steps to help you know when to let go.

🧵👇

#1: Understand what drives our decisions.

👉 Feeling of being responsible

👉 Need to control

👉 Being in the driver's seat = success

But as you continue on your journey, you realize that none of these guarantees happiness.

#2: Recognize that life is full of decisions

📌 What to eat

📌 Where to work

📌 Who to date

Every day we make choices, some serious some not so serious.

#2 Cont.

There are many times when we know the right decision. But what about those times when we don't?

Our minds become absorbed in all the challenges and possibilities we often lose focus on the problems facing us every day and we become anxious and stressed.

#3: Accept when it's time to let go.

When I let go I recognized what I was missing.

⭐ I no longer care about what-ifs and should-I.

⭐ I released the chains of control

⭐ I gave myself permission to breathe and exist.

⭐ To Be in the moment.

Life is a journey with unexpected turns and breathtaking moments which can't be planned or scheduled. There will always be responsibilities and commitments, but not everything is meant to be decided or known ahead of time.

Change happens slowly. Learning to let go, trust the process and live on faith requires

#1. Understanding

#2. Recognition

#3. Acceptance

And in the meantime, enjoy the unexpected, embrace life's challenges and live in the moment. You might be surprised how much you enjoy it.
