Let Go So You Can Let Be

“When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.” -Lao Tzu

I’ve shared the above Lao-Tzu quote a couple of times now on the blog. It’s a personal favorite and I think about it often. Like any great quote, it’s applicable towards all kinds of changing circumstances and life situations (new job, moving to a new location, new relationship, health changes, death of loved ones, etc…)

Here’s what I’m vibing from the quote at this moment in time…

To fully experience what you are now and become the person you are capable of being, you must completely let go of where you were before or where you hoped to be.

You’re here.

Lean in.

All the way in.

Be here now.

Then, and only then, can you honestly evaluate if you where you are now is where you want to continue to be.
