For the month of December, I’ll be participating in Reverb 10. Each day gives a new prompt, which is a chance to reflect on 2010 and manifest what’s next in 2011.
December 5 – Let Go.
What (or whom) did you let go of this year? Why? (Author: Alice Bradley)
This is an interesting one. I’m not one to keep things, and in fact, I’m the opposite of a hoarder – I’m a big believer in “out with the old, in with the new,” and that includes anything (or anyone) that isn’t working in my life. Which is not to say that I think everything is transitory, because I don’t. But if I’ve given something/someone a chance and it just doesn’t seem like it’s going to work, I have no problem getting rid of it or moving on to the next thing.
The biggest thing I let go of this year was a bad living environment. Moving (as I mentioned yesterday) has been one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. I feel so much happier, lighter, and freer. I smile more. I have a renewed sense of hope. I love where I live now, and consider myself so lucky.
In 2011, I want to let go of anything and everything that is holding me back from losing weight. It means eating healthy. It means tracking diligently. It means working out regularly. It means self-reflection. It means being honest. It means a lot of blogging. 🙂 And it means success.
