I’d always been a very guarded person, hiding behind my shield. Needless to say, I missed lots of opportunities, especially when it came to building meaningful connections. I spent most of my life trying to fit in, but ended up feeling like an outcast and deeply feared complete alienation. So when I got an opportunity to witness the Your Success Live event last weekend, I said “Yes” because something instantly connected with me. I’m glad I did it, because that weekend changed my life in a profound way. They say when you truly connect with yourself, you attract your real tribe, your match, your crew.

Do you endlessly ruminate about the past, getting stuck into the downward spiral of negative thinking? Or do you prefer to bounce back and make a conscious decision to take it as a learning experience and move on? Often, we’re unintentionally living in the past. We taste our food at the restaurant and think “It’s not as good as what they had the last time”. We sip our coffee and think “I wish it had less sugar”. We’re constantly ruminating on the past (or the future). According to Eckhart Tolle, we create and maintain problems in our lives because it gives us an identity. Most people replay past mistakes and painful situations over and over in their minds. They cling to frustration. They obsess and feel victimised by these experiences. In the end, no matter what the cause of your trauma, its impact on your life mainly lies in the story you tell yourself and the emotion you attach to the situation. When it’s time to let go, here are seven tips that will help you move on (even when it’s hard): 1. Decide that it is time to let go They say awareness is 90% of the journey.
