Allowing opportunities… Have you ever experienced a time where you try to do or resolve something or figure something out only to find that it seems impossible? So you let it go, perhaps in frustration, and then sometime later the ideal solution shows up or the situation naturally resolves itself?
That’s no accident. In fact it’s the letting go, or surrendering of the situation that allows the solution or new opportunity to come to you.
I’ve had several examples of this over the last year or so. Two in particular relate to some specific health challenges where I left no stone unturned in order to find the right solution, with no success. In one case I was told very specifically by more than one practitioner that there was nothing that could be done, it was just something I had to live with.
I don’t like to give up, but I now know the value of surrendering. Surrendering is not giving up, it’s more like letting go of the need to try and figure it out. In each case, after letting it go, sometime later I was inspired to think about it again and this time the perfect person was put in front of me with the solutions I needed, and it was so easy.
Sometimes I think we can be so attached to finding a solution, making a change or fixing something that we get in our own way. Letting go seems like giving up and so we stay with it thinking there must be something we’re missing. If we could only figure it out everything would be fine.
It’s holding onto it mentally that gets in the way and stops the right opportunity from showing up. Letting it go ultimately relieves stress and anxiety and brings a new clarity to your mind. Then you must pay attention to any impulse you feel to talk to someone or look in a certain place or read a certain book and follow where it leads you.
This is how you allow the opportunities you want to come to you, rather than you trying to chase them down. I used to pride myself on my ability to figure things out and find solutions. But what do you do when that doesn’t work anymore? You surrender, move onto something else and then you allow what you need to come to you.
I think it’s the simplicity of that that often puts us off, and that fact that letting go of the need to figure it out feels like giving up.
Action Step: Think of something you’ve been trying to figure out or change (perhaps it’s best to start with something small). Decide to let go of the need to find the solution. See if you can surrender it and move onto other things. See what happens!
Let this Unstoppable Affirmation support you on your journey:
I release the need to figure this out or find an answer right now. I allow solutions and opportunities to find me.
Be Unstoppable!
