The restrictions that we impose on ourselvesthrough preconceived notions of a

logic-based outcome often render us oblivious to life’s greatest miracles—the unforeseen gifts of the universe. Tiptoeing through life, “notting” yourself into self-defeat—not yet, not ready, not now, not enough, not sure, not safe, not known, not comfortable, not predictable, not definable, not me—will inevitably lead you toward an existence of fear-driven compromises, resentment, anxiety and regret. You can instead, choose to let go of such self-imposed limitations and become boundless. Absolute. Free of such confines. Instead, you decide to embrace and explore your infinite potential. Creating rather than reacting.

When I speak of the concept of “letting go”, I am often assailed and accused of, “not being realistic”. I hear all about the realities of people’s lives and the impossibility of the pursuits of their dreams. It is they, however, who are not realistic. The reality is that they are scared to death! Scared of relinquishing control of their predictable lives, scared of change, scared of the unknown, scared of failing, scared of being laughed at, scared of the future, scared of the past, scared of being wrong—and scared of letting go. Their self-doubt and stubborn insistence wickedly fuel a self-defeating, self-fulfilling prophecy. My suggestion? Find your voice and sing!
