Getting by Giving
“One half of knowing what you want is knowing what you must give up before you get it.” ~Sidney Howard
I’ve been thinking about the quote above all day. There’s a great deal of truth in the words - truth that I’d never really thought of before. If we want something that we don’t currently have, the odds are pretty good that we’ll have to give something up to get it.
- If we want to lose weight, certain foods are going to have to get the kiss off.
- If we want more hours in the day, there are probably specific time-wasters we’ll have to send packing.
- If we want to be more organized, clutter has to go. Yeah, I know, I felt that one, too.
Whatever it is we DON’T HAVE is missing for a reason. And if we keep motoring along, as is, we’ll never have it. After all, if we we’re drawing it to us with our present actions, wouldn’t we have it?
So, as we’re all fine-tuning our resolutions, we’d be well served to say so long to anything that’s holding us down. After that, there’ll be only one way to go…..up!
Have an awesome and safe New Year’s Eve!
