It’s that time of year again when we celebrate our nation’s freedom, our independence from an outer, oppressive tyranny. For the most part, Americans get to enjoy certain freedoms not experienced in other countries today. As we know, not all Americans have the same civil liberties as their counterparts; yet, as a whole nation, we strive to grow in the direction of equality and freedom for all. A good premise, I would say.
Yet, the question that begs to be asked is, “Do you really feel free?” Are you struggling with a boss at work who wants it only their way, not willing to listen to your suggestions, are you having to meet unrealistic timelines, feeling not appreciated, undervalued? Not happy with your home life, your relationships, yourself? Do you feel oppressed? Or, are you really suppressed?
Perhaps it’s time to speak up, make different choices, and even change your entire way of thinking! Maybe, instead of waiting with your life on hold for something else to happen, you start to clean out your mental closets and focus more on workability vs. non-workability. Letting go of judgment, ego, blame, right, wrong, on and on, isn’t for the faint of heart.
Basically, if something isn’t working, not bringing you joy, then STOP IT! Either find a way for it to work for all involved or move on. Easier said than done you say. Yes, at first, but with practice the walls begin to crumble and transformation is born. There are tons of classes, books, tapes, groups available that focus on personal transformation, take a baby step at first, but soon you’ll find that you may want to just drive in head first.
Freedom is a choice. Our forefathers made a choice to fight oppression, now you get to make a choice to fight your own suppression and transform your life into workability, joy and freedom! Good Luck !
