When giving up is good

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."
- Eleanor Roosevelt




Some how seeing this quote makes us want to do something.  It's evoking you to think or do something that perhaps you did not remember you could do.  But doing is not always productive.  What I am trying to say is, sometime we push too hard to get something that we really want only to find we can't get it.  Why is that?  You work and work and try and still it does not happen.  Answer - Because you are chasing it.  If you work and work and find the work hard and struggle and fight to get something you really really want and don't get it, stop trying.  Oh by all means keep wanting it and dreaming about it but give up trying for a while.  Let go of "it" and give yourself a break from "trying".  Allow the Law of Attraction to bring it or someone who can help you get it to you.  Every time I go through this struggle (because I am a very driven person) I remember to let go for a period of time or give up on getting it, and then, Viola!  It appears within reach.  The thing I was dreaming of and struggling for and fighting for.  I thought the more I push the closer I would get to achieving it.  But no! No I would not be mine.  Whatever I was pushing for would go to someone else!  I felt defeated and unimportant because I did not get it.  Then I carried this resentment for years as proof that I could not achieve my g oal. In that moment I gave up, and sure enough in time I got what I wanted.


Ask for what you want.  Work for what you want, but don't struggle and fight.  Allow things to come in their good time.  Have Faith and be happy for where you are now.  Give thanks for what you have achieved at this moment.  Give thanks for your Family, Friends and money in your life right now.  Be happy for today and keep your goals and dreams in the forefront of your mind.  It will come in it's time.


Be well
