Give Up The Stuff That Weigh You Down

in Proof of Brain21 days ago

if you want to fly, you have to give up the stuff that weighs you down.

It's sad how a lot of people hold grudges within themselves for long. I was like this a few years ago, I had every reason to be bitter. I felt safe each time I had to point someone as the reason for my backwardness. It was more like wanting people to know I would have done better, or grown past the level I was if only I wasn't deprived of certain privileges. This only made me lazy and stagnant, I wasn't making an effort and never was I changing position. I realized others who took responsibility for everything that has happened to them flew to a better height while I remained at the bottom still putting blame.

So many things weigh us down from getting to places we want to be. It could be unforgiveness, grudges, our past, failure, etc. But we never fly above our current position if we still hold onto them. The best way to soar high is to let go of stuff that weighs us down. As long as we carry them along, we never get the chance to fly above our current state.

Just like me, sometimes we feel we are right to be angry. We consider these things to be fancy to let go, but then if we don't, we suffer more and may make us stagnant at one point. Some things are not worth holding onto, they remain a burden on us as long as we don't give it up. If you ever want to grow, if you ever desire to soar high in life, learn to give up stuff that weighs you down.

This is a very good advice that if applied will help one go far in life. When we fail to forgive and let go of the hurt, we're endangering our lives the more and it will blind us to see the good in people but when when we let go, we will be free.

That's true, freedom comes with letting go

The easiest way to remain down is holding on to a grudge against the things that happened to us in the past.

The moment we learn how to learn the lessons and let go of the hurts, we can realize our full potential.

I'm glad you now see things the way it should be.

That's true and that's why it's important to put the past aside

Many a time we are our own heavy loads that weigh us down because of the things we harbor in our minds. I know it's actually difficult to let go of certain wrongs but it's necessary
I like this

That's true, and we need to let them down if we really want to go further

This reminder was needed
Truth be told, somethings are just not worth holding on to. Most at times, we are the reason we ain't going forward because we carry unnecessary load along with us
I really like this

Rightly said, and I'm glad you like it
