I made tremendous progress on this the other day when I had an epiphany. I’ve been so anxious to get rid of all my pain from the past and push away all my old belief systems and patterns of thinking, etc. I thought I was doing everything correctly including Louise Hay’s suggestion of living with the affirmation, “I am willing to change.”
However, I realized in order to fully release the past (and not just the parts I really abhor), I must first be honest with myself about the past. I must first take full responsibility. Instead of doing things like blaming my OCD tendencies on my mother, for example. So this is my new goal.
1. Be completely honest with myself.
2. Take absolute responsibility for my life.
3. Be willing to change. Be willing to release the past.
Then I have a feeling it will fall away on its own and I’ll relax into the lightness of being.
