We all know the expression, “go with the flow”. Think about how hard it is to “resist” a riptide in the ocean. That’s when it becomes dangerous. If you swim WITH the tide instead of AGAINST it, that is when your chances of survival increase. The same goes for life. When you fight and resist the way your life is, you create a state of fear and upset that almost always makes your situation worse. You close down and lose your ability to see clearly. Upsets are not caused by what happens, but by your fighting and resisting what happened. To handle a situation, you need to change your actions. For instance, yesterday I was so upset that my foot was not healing as quickly as I want, so I tried everything possible to speed it up! I tried stretching it, icing it, heating it, massaging it, and it started hurting more! I finally realized that nature has to take its course and by fighting with life’s natural flow, all I am doing is stressing myself and my injured foot! I decided right then and there to go with the flow instead of resisting. When we say goodbye to fear, control and upset, we are able to become more creative and more able to discover solutions never seen before. #dailyinspiration #susankorwin #author #lifecoach #simplestridestowardpositi vechange #gowiththeflow
