“Happy Birthday to Me,
Happy Birthday to Me,
Happy Birthday dear Ta-ash,
Happy Birthday to me!”
Sorry – but it is my Birthday today! And yes, I am still in Africa – now in South Africa riding horses through the African bush. I can’t wait to share the photos and stories when I get back!!!
But enough about me, let’s talk about you!!!! What’s going on with you guys!?!?!?
Today, let’s think about the quote:
“What we give our attention to – stays with us. What we let go of – will let go of us” – Cat Forsley
This is the same as NLP’s “What you focus on is what you get.”
How many of you put attention to:
- How worried you are about something
- How angry you are about something
- How fearful you are about something
- How sad you are about something
… Can I just ask – as a strategy … does it help?
Does it make you feel:
Better … or worse?
Happier … or sadder?
Safe … or unsafe?
I’m guessing for some weird reason, it makes you feel worse, sadder and unsafe.
Bummer.
🙂
So looking at the quote what if we let go?
- Let go of the worry
- Let go of the anger
- Let go of the fear
- Let go of the sadness
… What would happen then?
Would you feel:
better … or worse?
Happier … or sadder?
Safe … or unsafe?
… Again I’m guessing for some weird reason it would make you feel better, happier and safer!
Cool.
🙂
And I know you probably knew that already … and what you are screaming at me is – but I don’t want to let go of the worry. I won’t let go of the anger and I’m too scared to let go of the fear.
Ok 🙂 … Then just take responsibility that you are choosing to feel worse, sadder ad unsafe because of your ‘choice’ to not let go.
Interesting 🙂
Something to think about…
To Your Success!!!
