surrender to success

Published: Sat, 05/21/16

I was on the phone just yesterday with a friend of mine who recently went through a very challenging divorce, is now a single mom with 5 kids and majority owner of an online business with her former spouse.

Her mother was just diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and more tests are being run.

In the midst of all this, she is selling her home and buying a new one and is negotiating with buyers in a somewhat soft market since her new place is ready in 30 days.

She made the comment, "I'm fighting through it."


I said "surrender to it and it will all work out."

I've spent a lot of my life fighting, whether it was in business, over real estate, to do with money, around health, around weight and none of it moved me forward.

When we hang on, tooth and nail, and fight for whatever it is we are in or need, it is nearly impossible for it to come to pass.

Instead, the key for me, for my clients, and for my friends is to surrender.

Could it be the key for you too?

I surrender to my higher power, my higher intelligence (there has to be something much smarter than I am here!)

You can put a name on it ~ God, Allah, Universe, Buddha, Spirit ~ or you can just know that fighting is not the way to get anything.

Fighting just begets more anger, more frustration, more tears, and more angst.

Surrender is about letting the fight go, allowing what will happen to happen, and sending out peace, love, and forgiveness no matter the circumstance.

This same friend, even after the divorce, had to allow her ex to live in the house or have him physically removed by the sheriff's office. He refused to go.

She surrendered because she didn't want her kids to see him forcibly removed. Eventually, he left the house one day angry (fighting) and it gave her just enough time to change the locks and he was forced to find someplace else to live. (Legally he should have when the divorce was finalized.)

She surrendered to the wait and ultimately he was out of the house and it's been much more peaceful since, no need for sheriff intervention.

I'm betting than somewhere in your life or business it may feel like you are fighting something or someone.

It could be you are fighting to succeed, hmm that doesn't sound healthy or happy to me.

It could be you are fighting in a relationship, I know that sucks.

It could be you are fighting a health challenge, I know about that one too.

Instead, please consider SURRENDERING and LETTING GO.

It isn't weak, in fact it requires more strength and courage to SURRENDER than it does to keep the fight going.

When you let go, when you step into surrender you are stepping into flow.

As you release your hold on how everything is "supposed" to be, you'll find out that there is an even greater plan possible waiting for you with what is.

I'm actually going to do a training around this coming up after Memorial Day, keep an eye out for it.

There is a peaceful process for getting to your prosperity.

Have an amazing weekend and surrender to time for yourself, your family, and your friends.

Mega Hugs,
Melissa
