It’s hard to let go

The term “Letting go” is mostly used in terms of relationships

Well, that’s where I’ve heard it the most

It basically means to accept what has happened and to now move onto the next thing

However, the thing with letting go is we feel a void, something is missing. But nothing is actually missing.

That chapter in your life has come to an end and you’re just forcing yourself to stay by finding reasons.

It’s time to move onto the next thing and experience and learn new things.

But it’s hard because we cling onto the memories and all the good times.

But feelings are what get in the way.

Don’t get me wrong, these positive feelings are not bad.

That’s because we chase pleasure and want to avoid the “pain” of letting go

Not pain in the most extreme terms. But in terms of sadness you may feel when letting go but trust me It’s difficult at the start

Like the last Jaffa cake in the packet

having to give it to your sister when you really want it.

But without pain, there’s no growth.

But always know that if you don’t find anything else you can return to the Jaffa cakes because they will be there.

When you devote your time to too many things at once it’s not easy to get the full experience and it may start to become overwhelming.

This is where you must ask yourself what you want.

And what is truly worth your time.

But that first step is hard.

You’re comfortable knowing what’s going to happen next or how it will end and letting go seems scary because we no longer know what will happen next.

But nothing good comes from the comfort zone, have you ever heard of the phrase comfort is a killer?

We become anxious.

The feelings of good get replaced with anxiety

But why is it that we see that in a negative?

Why don’t we see that as a positive?

Could it be because we’re conditioned by society or is that something in our brain?

it takes time but it’s possible. It just depends on whether you want to stay in the cycle or break the cycle
