Let's say you grew up with a violent alcoholic father, and your way to protect yourself from being the target of his rage was to never speak up, to never let yourself or your wants and wishes be visible. Cut to you as an adult who never speak your truth or who never stands up for yourself. You're still reaping the false rewards, you're playing it safe, not risking getting hurt or yelled at, but this behavior is backfiring on you because by hiding and not taking a stand for yourself, you're living a life that totally makes you want to roll over and go back to sleep every morning instead of getting up and facing your day.
Once you identify the false benefits you're reaping from holding onto your stories, you can start the process of letting them go and replace them with new empowered ones that serve the adult you.

Become aware of your stories
We call these “stories” because they are just that. They are not the truth. And they can be rewritten. You're the author of your own life not your parents, not the society, not the bullies who called you fatzilla in junior high and sooner you decided to write yourself a better script, the sooner you get to live a more awesome life.

When someone does something awful to you, take that person out of the equation so you can open yourself up to have a more pleasant, and productive, reaction (and life). It’s not about them anyway, it’s about you. If you have nobody to be angry at, it’s hard to be angry. Instead, it opens the incident up for questioning. Why did this happen? How was I involved? Why did I attract this to myself? How can I grow from this? How can I find compassion for everyone involved? When you’re consumed by resentment, the lesson can’t get through all your inner, and outer, screaming and yelling. Do yourself a favor and use irritating situations and people as opportunities for growth, not pain.

if you focus on the negative things in your life, it will just lower your frequency, keep you in pain and resentment, attract more negative to you, very possibly make you sick, and very definitely make you crabby. If you instead look for ways to be grateful for everything in your life, it not only raise your frequency, but it allows you to grow by opening you up to the lesson.

Whenever anything excellent or mediocre or lame or annoying happens to you, meet it with the statement, “This is good because.....” and fill in the blank. Once you make this regular practice, you'll see how much easier it is to be in gratitude for much more than you realized.

Being in gratitude in not yet manifested informs the universe that you know that what you desire already exists, and puts you at the right frequency to receive it.

When it comes to forgiveness, what you actually have to DO is not hard. It’s like quitting smoking—you actually do less than you do when you smoke. You don’t have to go to the store to buy cigarettes, you don’t have to open the pack, light one up, find an ashtray, etc. All you have to do is stop. All the work is in letting go of your self-created attachment to cigarettes.Same with forgiveness. All you have to do is let go of your self-created attachment to this other person or belief.

If you’re having issues with someone you care about, explain how you feel without putting the blame on them and regardless of the outcome, forgive them. Your talk may bring you closer together or you may discover that you don’t want to hang out with them as much or at all, but either way, if you want to be free, you have to let it go.

Lugging around guilt, shame, resentment and self-loathing is The Big Snooze running the show, pitching a fit, demanding to be right and to be seen. Your higher self, on the other hand, could give a crap about what anybody else thinks or does because your higher self is madly in love with you and that’s all that matters. Whatever happened, happened. Holding on will not change this fact, it will just keep the negative feelings from the past alive, keep you a prisoner to your pain and lower your frequency.

Forgiveness is all about taking care of you, not the person you need to forgive. It’s about putting your desire to feel good before your desire to be right. It’s about taking responsibility for your own happiness instead of pretending it’s in somebody else’s hands. It’s about owning your power by giving all your anger, resentment.

Finding the good and the lesson in things allows us to move through them and on to new experiences. If you wanna stay stuck in the same place and keep getting spanked with the same lessons over and over, be negative, resentful, and victimized. If you want to get over your issues and rock your life, be grateful, look for good and learn.

If you want radically change your life, strengthen your faith that we live in an abundant, benevolent universe by being grateful for everything you've already manifested and all the good that's hurtling toward you. Be grateful that you have the power to manifest any reality you desire and then leap into the void to go get it.

If you want to be areal rock star in the manifestation department, get to the point where you have both unwavering faith and unwavering gratitude for that which you desire. This is when the real magic happens because mixing faith with gratitude is the High Holy Moly of Manifestation.

Faith is the muscle you use when you decide to blast outside of your comfort zone and transform your life into something that's practically unrecognizable to your fear of the unknown. Faith allows you to take risks. Faith is the stuff of “leap and the net will appear.”

Gratitude connects you to the truth that you not only have the power to manifest that which you seek, but you are the power. Which means in essence, when you are being grateful to Source of Energy you are being grateful to yourself. Which brings it back to the most powerful thing of all: Self- love. Tah dah!

There are lots of way to feel good and rise your frequency and get closer to the source of energy by sending out thanks, which makes positive energy reflect back to you— every action has equal and opposite reaction. This makes the manifesting process even more powerful.

Think about how it feels when you get to really thanks someone for doing something for you. You feel great for receiving whatever it is you received and for sending thanks out to them, and they feel great for giving you whatever they gave and for being appreciated. Which makes you feel great again— you could basically spend the rest of your lives passing thank you notes back and forth. And because it makes you feel good to be in such a state of gratitude, it puts you at a very high frequency and connects you to source energy, which puts you in a more powerful state to manifest more good feeling, things and experiences into your life.
