Letting Go of Negative Thoughts and Beliefs - What It Means
to Let Go

I received a number of emails lately that advise you how to "let go" of the limiting beliefs and pessimistic thinking that can get you down. I think that because it's a new year, and one that will probably be quite challenging for many, many are focusing on this idea. Also, it's one of the concepts the "Law of Attraction" relies on.

To curtail your negative thinking and beliefs, one life coach recommended writing them down on a piece of paper and then setting fire to them in your fireplace. Another said to simply "let the negative thinking pass by" and then focus on feeling positive. But what if the negative thoughts are more than just thoughts? What if they're actually your reality? What do you do then?

I have the "advantage" of actually going through a situation like this. In 2002 I began to think about writing a book (actually, I was asked to write a book, but I won't go into this minor detail now). The problem was, I was not a trained writer. I was an introverted, left-brained engineer and I knew that my writing was mediocre at best. I wasn't even aware of what I was supposed to write about. The pessimistic thoughts in my head, thoughts such as, "Your writing sucks and you know it" and, "You've got nothing to say" were not just thoughts--they were my reality. I had every reason to take them seriously. Then in 2006, when I showed my third draft to my editor, they were still my reality. "Write a how-to book instead," is what she said. My less-than-positive thinking was confirmed by an expert!

I was annoyed and agitated, of course, yet I knew that I had no choice but to keep going on my path. I had a vision of a book done well and I kept focusing daily on developing my writing capacity. I had my less-than-favorable thoughts (and my "lower vibration" emotions) and I kept going, just as you can be afraid and still keep going. The important difference is this: you can have your fear and your negative thinking, but your fear and negative thoughts don't have to have you. You can take them along with you, and you can even use them to your advantage.

Anyway, my pessimistic thoughts--and the progress that I was seeing over time--motivated me to learn and to do my best. And as my capacity developed, those negative thoughts lessened. I suppose if I had simply ignored them I wouldn't have worked as diligently and therefore, not progressed as much. And now I can actually say that I am grateful for those negative thoughts.
