Letting Go Can Be Hard But Doable

Being a coach, I learned through attending Coach University
about letting go of the "stuff" in my life that no longer
fueled it. This enhanced itself through my studies in
becoming a master practitioner in the laws of attraction --
the process of how our environment, the things and people in
it, affect what we attract in the present moment. Along
with this came the sensing of the heaviness of possessions.

My journey began eight years ago and even today I am still
letting go except that the items have thinned out considerably.
I discovered through time that the process needed to occur
in increments and in small amounts. It was as if I needed
to grieve a little in between. Even though that may sound
stupid, it does to me too, it’s my naked truth.

It began at my medicine chest. During my first honestly-aware
visit, all I could do was toss out a few expired
pills. Every week thereafter, over the next month, all I
could do was remove one item here and there. Setting a goal
of one a day only worked in spurts. Eventually, the cabinet,
which didn't have much in the first place, is now fully
functional and only contains what I really need.

Then came the linen closet and afterwards my home office. I
sold a majority of my books on Amazon. As my shelves became
more honest, and of course lighter, my writing began to
change. My productivity doubled, my focus, commitment, and
clarity took leaps. This was one of my happiest times
during this project. The more I let go, the more my writing
improved. I also made a New Year’s resolution to stop
buying books for a year. For an avid reader and book junkie,
this was painfully hard. I'm proud to say I made it to
September before I broke.

The New Year’s resolution included a side point -- I had to
read to let go of every book on my shelf that I hadn't
already read or that didn't fit my current needs. This
philosophy is still in effect. The next year I progressed
and came up with the one-book-in and one-book-out policy.
I'm not always successful, yet, I've found it a good rule of
thumb, especially for the wallet. The sale profits sit in a
savings account and the account only allows one withdrawal a
month. This maintains orderly spending for my weakest link
-- buying too many books. It worked for a few years until I
developed my own discipline and discernment. Was it easy,
heck no! In fact, I can remember times when my logic and
desires were in the boxing ring. Does it get easier, heck
yes!

During the book honesty process I had to develop a new
reading-research system. This required me to read and
process the information differently. I started a journaling
system, first manual, then


computerized. It also created a
very productive self-learning process that I found
absolutely fabulous and still use today.

Responsibility to maintain even what is hidden away or what
remains holds a lot of unseen debiting energy. Letting go
is removing the debits so there is room for new credits to
enter. I could feel the energy getting zapped. Kitchen
appliances making me feel guilty because I don't use them
frequently.

Now my life is getting simpler and my writing is improving
immensely. I no longer want very much nor dream of buying
this or that. Advertising no longer pulls my strings longer
than a few seconds which is a fabulous freedom.

Letting go isn't easy. There is the stage of
acknowledgment. At this stage you will realize how some
things hold you back. Even today, on occasion, it seems
weird knowing that even stuff hidden away in a closet or
storage unit can affect my present and future success. New
doors opened in my writing and beliefs. You will see your
gifts blossom as you move past the doubt and experience
these moments.

The second stage is deciding what you are ready to let go
of. This can only be done in the present moment. It
requires seeing the truth of what the items are really
costing you balanced with removing the doubt. Self-trust
and confidence build in big ways during this stage. The
more you experience the results the more your self-trust
increases and doubt decreases.

The fear that you will one day need what it is you are
letting go is a hard step. And self-honesty is the only
solution. Easier for some things than with others. During
my eight years on working through this process, only twice
did I find I really missed something. And a short time
later I found a replacement that either saved me time or
increase productivity many times over.

The third stage is the results stage. Life will become
easier, less overwhelming and stressful, and more creative.
You will have more time for the things that really matter
most. You will also need to learn not to settle for just
any ole stuff again. Everything that enters now will have a
blessed energy that fuels your life. It will fuel your life
and encourage even more letting go.

Where do you want to start today? The medicine cabinet, a
drawer, or your desk. Be honest with it. What can you let
go today to gain more energy tomorrow?
