Coping And Letting Go Of The Past

By Jason Ratliff, on February 20th, 2012

There are several ways of coping with a problem. Work on it inside and out with healing and realization (which is sometimes necessary in order to remove it from your life), see it as the unchangeable but forgivable past, accept it, and then let it go.

It’s also good to look at where you are putting your focus. Are you dwelling on something that you cannot change?

Enjoy the Thrill of Life

By Jason Ratliff, on May 14th, 2011

Let fear serve you by viewing it not as an obstruction in your path but as an amusement to enjoy. Fear can help you feel more alive. Think of it as a rollercoaster. Why would you choose to ride it? Because it is thrilling on the roller coaster of life. Sometimes you have to wait in line for a ridiculous amount of time, but all the while you are anticipating with all sorts of emotions. Fear being one of them but you’re also excited to experience the thrill of the ride. After you have finally made it to the front of the line, the moment of truth sets in when you board the rollercoaster. You buckle in securely having faith that you will be safe and sound and feeling protected. The next is the fun part, sitting back, letting go, and allowing the experience to take you.

Enjoy the ride,
