Surrender is the Key

Our big fat egos are like the layers of fat in our bodies that need exercise to melt them. We may like to resist this by thinking “I don’t think so”. If this is your answer, ask yourself “Am I completely in harmony with the people around me or with myself?”  If you are, you may be right in thinking so; otherwise it’s time to be honest with yourself. The size of our egos vary like the sizes of our bodies. Some of us may need to exercise lesser than the others to surrender the darker aspects of our egos that may appear in the forms of resistance, anger and dislike.

Ego is a an essential part of our well being provided we have learnt to connect with the healthy aspects of it. What is a healthy ego? A person with a healthy ego takes responsibility for his actions and reactions. He doesn’t blame external circumstances and chooses to find the solutions instead of pondering on the problems. He constantly maintains healthy attitude and perceptions about himself and of things related to him. I’m sure it must be seeming like a lot of work for some of you and the thought itself must have created a reaction to turn away from further reading it. This is called resistance my friends. Identifying it is the first step on a journey to self development. It’s time to be aware that whatever turn you off is a resistance reaction in you that is preventing you from accepting something.

This awareness itself can help you to reach out to help yourself and expand your consciousness to experience that there is more to life than we have allowed ourselves to experience. Surrendering your resistance through self awareness and creating an intention to let go is the vital step to experience expansion in your consciousness and filling your life with abundance of growth and happiness.
