The power of Surrender

We often live our lives under the expectations of others.  What they think we should do- whether it is what job we should have, what type of life we should live, who we should date, marry or be friends with. You get the picture:)

 We compare ourselves to past versions of ourselves and question why life is not exactly the same as it used to be.   We are moving forward so quickly we don't always take the time to pause and listen to exactly what are body wants.   What will serves us best in the moment.   

All of the above are easy to do.

I find myself getting caught up in this trap.  Focusing on what I should be doing and missing out on what is present right in front of me.   

This is when I pause and take the time to surrender.  To check in with myself and to ask myself what will serve me best in this moment.  What will bring me true ease and peace.  Then when I have my answer I follow it.   

I listen and I move forward.   We all have strong intuition and often times the answer clearly presents itself and we take the time to listen but then we don't act on it.  We still move forward with what we think we should be doing.   Trust in yourself and your ability to make positive choices.  

You have all the answers already within you,  just surrender and listen.
