Sometimes obstacles open alternative pathways that benefit you in the long run. The skills you gain from solving and overcoming them become exactly what you need to succeed later. You might think they’re stopping you, but in reality they’re leading you toward a better outcome.

Dear universe,
Thank you for the blessings that have come into my life, and for the unknown troubles that have been kept from me. If it’s for my best, I accept it with an open heart. If it’s not for my best, thank you for keeping it away from me. -Emily Maroutian
Letting go of control, releasing, surrendering, taking a breath, it’s a difficult practice, but you’ll be healthier for it, both mentally and physically.

When we get stuck on the specifics of how we want things to unfold, we become more controlling and unyielding. When we focus on our why, we become more willing. Life leads the willing, the open, the flexible, the adaptable. Let go of needing to know exactly how, when, where, or from whom. Focus on your why and allow life to fill in the details.

When you raise your standards for yourself, it automatically raises your standards for the people you keep around you. When you respect your own time and energy, you won’t tolerate other people draining it or using it selfishly. You won’t waste it on relationships that take from you but don’t replenish you. Instead, you will place your wellness first. You will say no to energy draining people and activities. You will take your own needs into account before saying yes to others. When you treat yourself better, you will only want to be around those who match that energy. You can’t control what anyone else offers you; but you can control what you choose to accept from them.
