Hi !

This week at Blue Sun, we have been head-first in planning mode. We have taken a good look at our list of projects, future articles and dreams and have asked the difficult question of "Is this going to get us where we want to go?"

In some cases it was a resounding YES and in a few others, it was sadly time to say goodbye or set a few projects aside for another time. What we got in return for stopping and being willing to let go of what isn't helping us, has been a boost of energy, excitement and clarity that comes from knowing we are fully focused on the right path.

How about you? Is it time to do an inventory and see what needs to stay, and what needs to go? We'd love to hear what you discover, simply hit reply to this ezine and share your thoughts and comments with us!

Love,

wendianddeb

 

"Bonds of Blood & Spirit: Loyalties by Wendi Kelly and Deb Dorchak was one of the first books I had read in a while and it was one I couldn't put down! I am eagerly waiting for the next book. The characters in Loyalties are almost like an addiction; you fall in love and can't wait to get more!

The characters are so well explained you can almost see them in your head. You just get the feeling you are right there with them. Sometimes you love them and others not so much, but as the book goes on you find yourself feeling like one of the pack! If you like True Blood this book is a must read ... it is destined to be made into a movie! The story line could be considered a fantasy, but Deb and Wendi make you feel like it is just a part of every day life!

When I finished this book, I thought about it every day for months, it just sucks you in and you don't want it to be over!"

Saying Goodbye with Love

Sometimes, it isn't about what we add to our lives that creates the dream life worth living.

It's about what--or who--we say goodbye to. It's about stopping patterns--once and for all--the behaviors, thoughts, actions, situations, stuff and people that keep us stuck in our old life.

It's about letting go.

  • Letting go of bad habits, clutter, negativity, energy--drainers and time--wasters.
  • Letting go of unhealthy food that keeps us stuck in a place of yuck.
  • Letting go of people that make us sigh and try to make us feel bad about who we want to be.
  • Letting go of projects and dreams that no longer fit the direction we want to go in.
  • Letting go of routines and schedules that are overwhelming and pointless.
  • Letting go of tarnished treasures that we have to hide away because they are old, ugly, rusty....or no longer serve a purpose.
  • Letting go of excuses.
  • Letting go of can't.

It's about saying goodbye.

What stops us from saying goodbye to the things--and people--that no longer serve us in a positive way? Why do we hang on longer than we know we should? Why do we stay stuck on an endless road of same--old--destructive habits when we can CLEARLY see what life could be like if we let go?

We hang on out of fear.

  • Fear of hurting someone's feelings
  • Fear of wasting.
  • Fear of change.
  • Fear of lack.
  • Fear of taking responsibility.
  • Fear of failure.
  • Fear of success.

What would it take for you to finally say goodbye and mean it? Would it mean saying goodbye to fear? Honestly, that is easier said than done. Being in a state of continual courage is exhausting and hard to sustain. We all are familiar with the middle of the night Fear Monsters that eat courage for a bedtime snack.

Perhaps another approach would be to acknowledge, accept and face the fear.

And then say goodbye anyway. The act of naming the fear, is like facing the monsters in the closet. When you shine the light on them, you find they are harmless. You find they were smoke screens--keeping you from seeing the truth.

Once we have faced, admitted and accepted our fears, it becomes easier to see the truth.

The Truth that we can say goodbye in a loving, proactive, thoughtful way that opens the door to better self-esteem, proactive actions, clarity, exciting adventures, more loving relationships and the dream life we desire.

Uncover your hidden fears and you will open the door to moving forward.

Is it time to say goodbye?
