One always has to let go of thoughts, belongings, or relationships in order to either acquire others or just get on with a change in life. Good riddance too! Travel light!

As you grow older, you tend to simplify your life. It gets easier and easier until you reach the finish line.😃

I like how you put it Fradiga "Travel light"! We can't keep everything with us on our journey!

@Fradiga I really liked your “travel light” comment too. I’m going to write that down.

I let go of my fear of failure. I let go of perfectionism. I let go of my tendency to think negatively about myself.

It's great that you've let go of those negative things. However, i'm still struggling to let go of perfectionism and self-loathing. Do you have any advice?

For me I journal my thoughts in a diary. Practicing positive affirmations and gratitude shifts our focus from the negatives style of thinking to a more positive thinking. Hope it helps.

I’ve let go of…….

The thought that I need to always please everyone and put everyone first even at my own expense bc if I don’t I’m committing a crime. I’ve come to realize that’s not true. 

The habit of not prioritizing myself first and I stopped caring about how others think and what they say about me and basing my life and actions and decisions around that stuff. 

The people I let go of are just people who don’t need to be in my life bc they are a bad influence on me. Yes this includes some family members but it’s not just limited to them. 

I gave multiple people most of my time for so many years. Now it’s time for me to dedicate my time and everything to me. That’s literally all this is about in case anyone feels I’m being selfish or uncaring about this.

I love this!! I have these things on my new years resolution list. I used to be such a people pleaser (having grown up in an unstable environment) and I never wanted to "rock the boat". I find that the older you get, the easier it is to stop caring what people think and focus more on yourself and your happiness. And there's nothing wrong with having boundaries to ensure that happiness.


Best wishes to you! :)

Breakups (especially the first one)  can be rough, sorry that you're going through it now. Remember you can always connect with a listener here for support and comfort.

@amiablePeace77 I’ve been letting go of a lot of things lately. It’s a slow evolution each day. The biggest thing lately was letting go of the idea that I kept needing to think of something else to change about myself to make a relationship work.
