30 Things To Let Go Of In 2015... by caramel007(f): 11:12pm On Dec 08, 2014
Feel free to add yours, what are those things you want to and or should I say need to let go of in 2015...

So today, I challenge you to this:
Before the New Year…


1. Let Go Of Your Temper.

2. Let Go Of Petty Grudges. – Life is far too short to be spent
nursing bitterness and registering wrongs. If there’s someone in your
life who deserves another chance, give it to them.

3. Let Go Of The Idea That Everyone Has It Better Than You. – If the
grass looks greener on the other side… Stop staring. Stop comparing.
Stop complaining and START watering the grass you’re standing on.

4. Let Go Of Lingering False Beliefs.

5. Let Go Of Expired Ideals. – Growth is painful. Change is painful.
But in the end, nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you
do not belong.

6. Let Go Of Yesterday’s Tragedies.

7. Let Go Of Your Tendency To Avoid Problems.

8. Let Go Of Life’s Little Annoyances. – Don’t let dumb little things
break your happiness. Frustration and stress come from the way you
react, not the way things are. Adjust your attitude, and the
frustration and stress is gone.

9. Let Go Of Assuming Other People Are More “Normal” Than You. – The
only normal people you know are the ones you don’t know very well.
Period.

10. Let Go Acting Standoffish And Unapproachable. – We all need to
learn to be more human. Don’t avoid eye contact. Don’t hide behind
gadgets. Smile often. Ask about people’s stories. Listen.

11. Let Go Of The Idea That Some People Are Below You. – Even if
you’ve worked really hard to get to where you are in life, there’s no
such thing as a self- made person. Someone believed, encouraged, and
invested in you. Be grateful and be that someone for others too.

12. Let Go Of The Idea That You Are What You Physically Own. – You are
an incredible human being who’s entirely detached from what you have
physically acquired in this world. Remember to remain humble.
Ultimately, two things define you more than anything else: Your
patience when you have very little, and your attitude when you have
more than enough.

13. Let Go Of Wanting Stuff You Don’t Need.

14. Let Go Of Seeking Happiness From Outside Yourself. – In life, you
have to create your own sunshine. Happiness starts from within.

15. Let Go Of Wanting To Be Repaid Of Every Good Deed You Do.

16. Let Go Of All The Little White Lies And Charades. – How do you
build credibility? It’s not rocket science. Be honest. Follow through.
Honor your promises. Say sorry when you screw up. Be the type of
person you want to meet and spend time with. Be the type of person
whose actions, words and values always agree with each other.

17. Let Go Of Any Hypocrisy.

18. Let Go Of Putting Everyone Else’s Needs In Front Of Your Own. –
Give as much as you can every day, but don’t allow yourself to be
used. Listen to others closely, but don’t lose your own voice.

19. Let Go Of Fearing What Your Intuition Is Telling You To Do. – Fear
kills more dreams than failure ever will. So don’t let fear shut you
down; let it wake you up. Do one thing every day that scares you. The
more that you act on your intuition fearlessly, the more your
intuition will serve you. If you genuinely feel something, pay
attention.

20. Let Go Of Waiting For The Stars To Align. – Remember, you don’t
always need the perfect plan. Sometimes you just need to give it a
try, let go, and see what happens. Just do the best you can until you
know better. Once you know better, do better.

21. Let Go Of The Need To Get Everything Done At Once.

22. Let Go Of The “All Or Nothing” Mentality Regarding Success. –
Appreciate the grey area between the extremes of success and failure –
the journey, the process, the path – what you’re learning, how you’re
helping others learn too, and the growing process you allow yourself
to participate in. And above all, never let success get to your head
or failure get to your heart.

23. Let Go Of Criticizing Yourself. – Nobody is inspired by your
misery or self-deprecating comments. If you wish to inspire yourself
and others, be joyful. Have fun. Love yourself. Forgive yourself.
Accept yourself. Be unapologetically YOU.

24. Let Go Of Those Who Say You Aren’t Attractive Enough. – More women
worldwide are suffering from anorexia and bulimia than are fighting
breast cancer. There are similar statistics for men too. Love yourself
the way you are, because you are beautiful just the way you are.

25. Let Go Of Changing Just To Impress People. – Change because it
makes you a better person and leads you to a brighter future. Change
because you know it’s the right thing to do for YOU.

26. Let Go Of Needing Everyone To Like You. – Everyone doesn’t need to
like you, and some people won’t no matter what you do. Try not to take
the things these people say about you personally. What they think and
say is a reflection of them, not you.

27. Let Go Of All Negative Influences. Period.

28. Let Go Of Thinking That Giving Up The Wrong Things (And
Relationships) Means Failure.

29. Let Go Of The Idea That It’s Too Late To Start Over And Get It Right.

30. Let Go Of Putting Things Off For One More Day. – Stop
procrastinating. Stop wishing for it and start working for it. Do
what you have to do today so you can do what you truly want to do, and
be where you truly want to be, tomorrow.

"Sometimes the hardest part isn’t letting go, but rather learning to
start over in certain areas of your life". This is a challenge all of
us face- EVEN ME. If you’re struggling with any of the points above,
there is a clear path to the new beginning you seek. Your present
habits are simply broken and need to be mended. When you trust a
broken set of habits every day, it’s only a matter of time before you
feel broken too.



Compliments Of The Season.
