Go With The Flow

“The secret to moving on is to simply keep moving,
one thought, one step and one day at a time.�

- Suzanne Logio

Imagine you are standing by the ocean’s edge. For balance you dig your heels into the sand. But each new wave just knocks you down. Finally, the undertow drags you out to sea. And if you swim back against tide, then you feel exhaust and drown. But if you swim parallel to shore till the powerful current subsides you will likely survive.

The above example is cited to tell the secret to moving on…….don’t waste energy in resisting what is beyond your control. Mainly there are two primary roadblocks to moving on: Resistance and fear. Whenever there are problems and obstacles in life you feel that situation is unfair, but in reality, it just is. So instead of railing against it, try to embrace any good that might be hidden in it. Facing forward, squaring your shoulders to the future, envision all that your soul desires. Following this path your feet will follow your heart.

Fear of the unknown anything of our comfort zone is universally human. But it need not be immobilizing. Maybe you might have to change your mind or your thoughts. Don�t ask “Why me?”. Ask “What can I do to reach my goals?�. Having a positive attitude will strengthen you to face this and any future challenges.

Last but not the least – shift catastrophic thought such as� This is the worst thing that could happen to me� to �I have handled other challenges in my life and I am sure I will survive this one. I will face all the problems that come in my way.”
