In which new direction would I like to head?

In which new direction would I like to head?

When you’re dealing with something that can’t be changed, you have choices.

You can choose to struggle, battle, and cling, and remain stuck -

stuck in an unfavorable situation, with negative feelings.

Or, you can choose to go with the flow -

in other words, you can choose to accept the situation,

let go of negative thoughts about it, and

open up to a change in direction.

Is there an area in your life where you’re feeling stuck?

Use this awareness as an indicator that it’s time to go with the flow -

use it as your inner compass to get you moving again in a new and positive direction.

First ask yourself:

Will any amount of thinking, forcing, or coaxing alter my situation?

If the answer is no, accept that fact.

Without acceptance, you’ll continue to fight, resist, and struggle,

which will erode your joy and energy.

On the other hand, accepting the situation for what it is and

choosing to go with the flow

will bring tranquility, peace, and lightness.

Next, ask yourself:

Which thoughts and old beliefs do I need to let go of?

Let go of any thoughts about the situation that are causing upsetting feelings;

such as impatience, jealousy, fear, or anger.

One way to do this is to trust that out of every situation, good will come.

When you choose to believe that good will come out of every experience,

you’ll soon discover that perceived obstacles are really blessings in disguise.

Sometimes these obstacles serve to nudge you in a new direction -

one that will open up your world to magnificent experiences.
