Sometimes, the more you try to hold on to something, the quicker it slips through your fingers.
That’s because desire always comes from a place of lack.
The mind tells the universe that it doesn’t have something, and the universe answers, Then you won’t.
Letting go, however, is the quietest way of having.
If you really let go of something, you let go of its power.
And, as a matter of fact, it is exactly at that time the thing comes back to you.
Should One Strive or Trust the Flow?
Today, we live in a time that constantly praises striving.
Work longer. Desire more. Organize better.
However, sometimes all that exertion just takes away your vital energy.
The brain gets obsessed with an aim and when results are slow to come, it lowers its mood.
At times, the smartest decision is to abstain from doing anything.
Because letting go is not defeat, it is surrender.
Montaigne once said:
“If you want to obtain something, stop wanting it.”
This is not giving up; it is the command over one’s mind.
Clarity only appears when the mind loosens its grip.
Just like murky water shows its depth only when it becomes still.
Letting Go Is an Art
To let go is not to give up.
It is, in fact, the most conscious way of redirecting one’s energy.
Someone, a job, a desire, a fear…
The more you grasp it in your mind, the more it grabs you.
However, once you let it go, that tied up energy becomes liberated.
And most of the time, the very thing you give up comes back to you, refined and renewed.
The universe doesn’t like emptiness; whatever you release is replaced by something that fits you better.
The Formula of Frequency
1. Recognize: What are the things you still hold on to?
2. Breathe: Stop doing things that force a certain outcome.
3. Be grateful: Gratitude is the key that opens the door to new possibilities.
4. Release: What is meant to be, will be, and will come in its own time.
This state of mind is when desires lose their obsessive character.
At that point, you no longer chase things they begin to align with your frequency.
Real Power Is in Not Controlling
The law of letting go is, essentially, the law of trust.
It is the act of letting the universe be the one to make the plans for you.
There are times when the smartest move is not to have a move at all.
Don’t forget:
Receiving something in the quietest manner is by letting it come to you.
“Relax your mind. Everything comes at the moment you let it go.”
