Today, I'm going to be talking about letting go of the fantasy and moving into reality. 

And this was something that I worked on with a client. 

It's not going to be a long podcast, but we were going over this reading and it just, it just hit me on a different level. And I really wanted to share it with you again.

This comes out of The Language of Letting Go

And this reading is about taking care of ourselves, but I think you're going to see how I'm talking about it in terms of letting go of the fantasy and really taking the reins of reality.

“We do not have to wait for others to come to our aid. We are not victims. We are not helpless.” 

And one of the things I talk about in my coaching is these two energy levels. There's catabolic energy, which is negative, destructive energy. And then there's anabolic energy, which is healing, growing, constructive energy, with a very strong energy of success. 

Your chances and your potential for success when you are in anabolic energy is very strong. And of course, when you are in that catabolic thinking is very low. 

When you are a victim, you are in that lowest form of catabolic energy. 

And so what is important here Is again, making that transition from the fantasy that you can't do anything to the reality of yes, you can.

“Letting go of faulty thinking means we realize there are no nights on white horses, no magical grandmothers in the sky watching, waiting to rescue us. Teachers may come our way, but they will not rescue. They will teach. People who care will come, but they will not rescue. They will care. Help will come, but help is not rescuing We are our own rescuers.”

And the thing that I find about fear, and the thing that I find about anxiety, and not knowing what to do next, all has to do with this one thing of me trying to control outcomes instead of trying to manage and handle the real work that I need to do, the reality, which is to do the work on myself and to take care of myself, my attitudes, my thoughts, and my actions. 

My trying to control outcomes is a fantasy. 

My trying to manage, take care of myself, handle my thoughts, my actions, my attitudes, and myself. That is reality, and that's where the power is, and that's where the potential for success lives.

“Our relationships will improve dramatically when we stop rescuing others. And stop expecting them to rescue us.”

And also, our power begins when we put it rightly on where we can actually do something. Not with trying to control outcomes, but managing and taking care and handling ourselves. Again, that would be ourselves, our attitudes, our thoughts, and our actions.
