Letting go of the monkey on your back ...

Most of us don't let go of the very thing that is letting us down. Letting go is one of the most powerful things we can do in our lives because it sets us free from the monkey that was weighing us down and reveals a whole new life of possibilities and experiences. The experiences we were never able to embrace and enjoy because we were too time consumed with the the 100 ton monkeys on our backs. For us control freaks out there (admittedly, me being one of them), it's always a good time to be selfish and stop thinking too much about the people who should be helping themselves and start thinking about taking care of yourself..first. Note to self...take care of yourself first and taking care of others will become a lot easier.
