Out With The Old…

Boxes!

Loads of boxes!

Over the holiday period, I have been helping a friend sort through their house. After years of accumulating various things, it was time to have a good clear out – sorting the unwanted items into recycling or charity donating boxes. There were many.

Out with the old and in with the new, or not. Do you really need so much stuff? Or is it just out with the old and creating capacity and openness for the new.

As you embark on a new year, take time out to discard what you no longer need. Not just ‘stuff’ that clutters your environment but also the old beliefs and ideas that clutter your mind and perception. Those beliefs that no longer serve you or that are holding you back.

Like the belief that you can’t live your passion, that you aren’t good enough to be who you want to be, or that you still have to do something in order to be acceptable to be others. You already have everything you need inside you. All you need to do is be quiet and listen.

It is your mind that distorts your mirror. Don’t believe every thought that pops into your head. You are far more beautiful than you give yourself credit for. You are way more capable than you ever could have dreamed. You really are!

Making New Year’s resolutions are great but as you do so don’t forget to strip away all that you no longer need. For every resolution you make, help yourself by getting rid of something that will free you to live a life far greater than you ever imagined.

Happy New Year!
