Like they were caught in a loop...

We've all been through a situation like that... ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌   We've all been through painful experiences . That's a fact. Situations that were not easy to overcome. Maybe, someone we loved told us we were not good enough. Maybe one of your peers at work tried to take credit for something you did. Or a dear friend who betrayed the trust we gave them. Whatever that was. It hurt you. And because of that... You got caught in a loop of unforgiveness you can't get out of. Like you had to hold on to that pain and never let it go. As if moving forward meant that what you had to go through wasn't important. Like it never happened in the first place. And the person who harmed you got away with it. So we keep dragging those wounds of the past into the present. But... What happens to those who decide not to forgive? Those who do not want to let the wound heal? Well, that burden stops them from moving forward. Think of resentment as a rubber band. No matter how hard you pull from it... It always comes back to where it started. In this case, pull back you back into the past. And no matter how much you want it. Or how many times you try. You'll always come back to the same place. And you'll not move forward. In the same way... Being focused on the bad experiences from the past does will not allow you to enjoy your present. You'll keep having the images of what happened in your head. And that anger and bitterness you felt at that moment... Will never go away. Now, there's a way out of all of this And for that... You must learn how to forgive. It is easy? No, it is not. But it's necessary. Forgiving does not mean forgetting. But it's not about revenge either, or reconciling with the person who harmed us. We do not forgive someone else only for their benefit. We are not trying to pretend that nothing happened. Instead, we forgive ourselves. We do it to be able to go beyond that pain. Forgiveness will take time, as with anything else that is important to you. It requires dedication and daily work. However... Here are some steps you can take to begin your journey of forgiveness: First. Connect with your emotions. Something you can do is write your thoughts and feelings on a piece of paper. That way you can see clearly what you're thinking about. Then ask yourself... What you can I do to find a way out of this situation and overcome every negative emotion. It could be going for a walk. Spending time with nature. Or maybe doing something entirely new. Second. Let go of the past. This is something you must-do if you want to move forward with your life. And start living in the present. If we don't practice this regularly... What ends up happening is that we accumulate a lot of unprocessed emotions within ourselves. This clouds our vision and makes it difficult to know the next steps to have a happier life. Practice living in the present moment by sitting quietly and observing your breathing. Or just getting out there and appreciating the beauty around you. Third. Take back your power. Be the author of a new story for yourself. After all, you were not born a victim. And this will not be the only time you have to choose to forgive. So commit yourself to keep choosing it over and over again. No one has the power to make you feel uncomfortable without your permission. Remember that. So when those hurtful feelings come back... Remind yourself that you are choosing to forgive. That you're taking back your power and choosing to love. However, that desire to change must come from deep within us. And finally, accept the lesson. Every experience we have is a learning experience. Even if we think that what happened to us is unfair. Those are the experiences that make us grow... If we keep an open mind and see things differently. Those dark times are the ones that transform us. It's from those times we get new perspectives and insights. I have literally seen hundreds of students experience difficult times. And that has always been the beginning of a new story for them. And once you've followed the steps above ... You will be able to give love to the people who hurt you. That emotional debt between you and them will be gone. Because when we forgive... We regain power and control over our lives. We get the peace we once lost. And you'll celebrate your freedom with a grateful heart! You will be open to a new way of living. To new relationships and new experiences. Remember ... Forgiveness is a decision. And it is never too late to take it. You're still on time. Your friend and coach, Leon. PS.
