“You expect your family and friends to support you? Hopefully, they are interested in you and your welfare. You expect them to be there at important times, don’t you? What happens when friends and circumstances let you down? What can you do about it?
Realize it takes some planning to be disappointed. You have to invest in an outcome. You have to wish, want, hope and dream someone behaves, or circumstances go, a certain way to be disappointed when they don’t. You want something. It doesn’t happen.
What can you do? Understand, you got your hopes up. Certainly, there is nothing wrong with hoping and positive thinking and expecting the best. The issue isn’t expecting the best and positive thinking. It’s getting attached to having a particular outcome.
Energy Flows Where Attention Goes
Our attachments limit us. They shape our thinking and feeling. If we must have something a certain way we will often find ourselves disappointed. It’s a symptom of being a perfectionist and of attempting to control the outcome. So what to do?
Work hard to get what you want. Expect it. Want it. Persist in getting it, BUT allow it to happen in any number of ways. If you only have one way of fulfilling your outcome you are sorrowfully limited. Each of us needs to have numerous ways of getting what we want.
Instead of wearing blinders we need to open our eyes. We need many roads to Rome. We need to be satisfied that the answer may come in another form and not just the way we want it. To insist it does will keep you disappointed again and again. Let go. Get free.
Instead Of Being Disappointed Be Willing To Be Surprised
Drop the attachment while maintaining the desire. Allow it to unfold. Your hard work will pay off but perhaps not in the manner you had hoped. All can still come to fruition. Don’t put your eggs all in one basket. Get more eggs and more baskets. Get it?
Free yourself from the worry of having to have it a certain way. It will come in unexpected ways which you can’t see now. The path is not a straight-line but twisted and convoluted. Still, it is the path. Stick with the dream of having it. It is yours. It is coming to you. Trust that.
Then allow it to manifest for you however it will. Think ‘this or something better’. It doesn’t matter how it comes to you. Trust it will come. Trust it will be revealed. Keep the faith. Keep working towards it but with this in mind. You can have this or have something better than you could have ever even imagined. Wouldn’t you enjoy that too? Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
