Sometimes I start to feel as though I'll never overcome these issues and it makes me feel discouraged and hopeless. But then I make myself look back at where I was just 3 years ago and I immediately see there is a definite positive change, even though it is very slight its still change. Then I have hope again.
The feeling of letting go of things you cannot control/change is the ultimate feeling of freedom. I look back at the times I have felt myself do this. My goal is to be more consistent with it. Seems I do it on 1 thing and then not again for a long time, too few and far between. So its not that I don't know how to let go. You would think once you got a taste of that you would just go full force with it.
The best feeling is when at times I'll be panicking and obsessing over something and get to the point where I just stop and recognize the absurdity of behaving that way, and then simply choose to let go of it, what a great feeling!!
