Do you have a fear of letting go?

How often have you wanted to make changes in your life and know what you would like to do yet stop yourself from doing it for fear of letting go of what you have?  You're afraid to let go of the safety net, the comfort zone that you are currently in?  Those negative thoughts cause you to doubt your way forward.  Perhaps you are waiting for something to happen to force you to make a decision.  Maybe you are thinking 'What if whatever it is that you want to do doesn't work out? I'm better off as I am'.  You will be pleased to know that these feelings are quite normal.

If you are struggling to make decisions to change things in your life then you are probably not ready to take action yet.  Give yourself a break, stop worrying and beating yourself up and go back to enjoying the present moment.  Contemplate the vision of what you want.  Sharpen the dream and make those pictures in your mind bright.  Be grateful for what you have.  An attitude of gratitude is one of the keys to success.

When the time is right you will take the action required to move you to where you want to be.  Letting go will not be an issue because you will know that it is the right path for you and everyone else in your life.  Hoping that things will work out how you want them has never achieved much.  Expect great things and take action are two more keys to success.

And remember to enjoy the process!
