What is a resolution? A decision or formal statement to do or not to do, to take action or not.
So why do we break our resolutions? This is such a no-brainer and I don’t know why no one talks about it. Here’s a famous quote:
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Albert Einstein
And this is exactly what we – human beings are doing every year through our New Year Resolutions ritual.
After partying all night on the 31st, you get up on the 1st and say: Ok no more indulgence, no more over eating, no more drinking, I will exercise every day, lose that weight, I will be more loving and more patient with my partner, I will get a new and better job, I will be more compassionate, more giving, I will stop smoking, become a vegetarian, take more time to relax, call my parents more often, write a book, bring my business to another level, and I could keep on going on and on…Quite, Get, Find, Join, Help, etc… Have you recognized yourself in one of these? Of course you have.
And why is it that 99% of us found ourselves at the end of the year with the same resolutions for the following year? You did not stop smoking, you did not become a vegetarian, you did not bring your business to another level, etc….
It is because you tried to be someone you are not. You tried to lose weight to please someone else NOT for you, you tried to call your parents out of guilt NOT out of love, you tried to stop smoking because everybody is bugging you to stop, etc. You made resolutions for things you din’t really want to do. You did not have a WHY for either one of them.
And until you know your WHY you are only forcing yourself against your natural path. So why don’t you let it go? Let those phony, superficial resolutions go and start feeling your true self, let your true calling show itself. It is time to recognize YOU and your purpose. Your WHY has been there all along but you have covered it with so much junk that you can’t see it or feel it any more.
Know that all the power is within you and through this power you can do or have anything you desire. Whatever you affirm and accept from within will become a part of your visible experience. Just listen and start making your list.
Not a list of resolutions; but a list of insights that you will manifest as a co-creator of your life.
What you need to do is just BE you. Be you in harmony with your true essence. When you are in harmony with your true essence, it is not complicated and it does not have to be difficult. On the contrary…everything flows!
Just listen, feel it, and let it be.
With Love
