Let It Go (And Be Happy)



While the concept of letting go is strongly associated with loss and grief, there are certain things in life that actually mean otherwise — you let them go and you will surprisingly find yourself happier! So what are these things? Read on!
 1. Let go of control.
Lao Tzu once said, “the world is won by those who let it go”. And he was absolutely correct! You can never tell people what to do nor predict what is to come. Ultimately, one has to yield to the fact that living is actually allowing yourself to accept things as they are.
2. Let go of the need to be always right.
Every so often, you may feel the urge to “correct” people and tell them about what is “right”. Yet, the person on the other end may also feel the same way and both of you might just end up arguing as to who is right and who is wrong. So before you go telling people what is right, ask yourself if it’s worth the fuss.
3. Let go of the need to please others.
People will most likely have expectations for each other. It’s okay to give in to these expectations every now and then but if impressing others is making you unhappy and less fulfilled, it’s about time you say “no” and allow people to see the “real” you. You do not have to try so hard to fit in because being different from the others is actually an asset!
4. Let go of questions.
Asking yourself questions ain’t bad thing. But if you find yourself deeply paralyzed by these questions that you fail to appreciate life, let those questions go and as Ray Bradbury wrote in The Martian Chronicles — faith had always given us answer to all things.
