Do you want to be happy or do you always want to be right? It’s a tough one, I know. We’re all experts on something or someone or some place so when another person tries to tell us we’re wrong, what do we do? Well, we talk louder of course, or maybe faster, or we demand that the entire room announce your rightness, your highness— JUST to prove a point.

Exhausting.

Now, imagine you decide to accept the situation, the person or the viewpoints for exactly what and or who they are. I’m not saying you become wrong ( and this is a possibility too, I hate to break it to ya), but you become okay with what is. The more you try and resist the situation at hand, the more of it you’ll create…….and then it’ll grow into a my-size Tyrannosaurus rex and end up suffocating YOU when all is said and done.

Annoyingly ridiculous how that works.

So, my point being here is this– it’s okay to not always be right so in return, you can be happy. If you can become okay with the fact of letting go, I promise you will find and feel a different kind of  peace  within. This kind of peace though will never exist as long as you continuously try and hang people by their toes until they agree. Let go of always needing to be in control….or always needing to be right. Once you’ve decided to accept the situation, no argument can be had or drama can be created. It’s a freedom you’ve created for yourself.

So the next time you get all worked up, maybe stop and think, what and why am I arguing? How does creating more frustration help me at all?  How is it going to help the situation? And why exactly does this matter again? Oh that’s right, it doesn’t. You’ll be surprised at how freeing it can feel. 🙂

Till next time,
