Your consciousness is a powerful tool. If you do not believe you can have the thing you desire, it shows up as resistance, despite all the things you are doing to achieve your goals. Essentially, resistance is any thought, belief, or behavior, either conscious or unconscious, that stands contrary to your desire. On the surface, you can be doing positive affirmations, creative visualizations, and imagining your success. But in the end, if you truly do not believe then you will get what you expect, each and every time. Today, become aware of where you are resisting change; allow yourself to rise above your own limiting thoughts and notice what stories and beliefs you continue to tell yourself. Become aware of the ways you might be holding yourself back from your desires and then let them go.The rest of the work is to surrender to your now, to this moment; to savor the experiences that continue to add to your life. And to seek joy! In other words, the key to letting go of resistance is letting go of the expectation that you’re supposed to be anywhere other than where you already are, right now. Today, let go of all resistance and know that things will change soon enough and they will find you along your path, as you are ready. But until then, enjoy here, now. And prepare yourself to receive.

Just for today, I am open to change. I am willing to change. I greet the new with open arms. I am wiling to learn something new every day. Each problem has a solution and all experiences are opportunities for me to learn and to grow. I am open to the new and changing and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.
