Blunt Force Truth: Acceptance of things as they are isn’t a cop-out. It’s how you create space for change.
Every heard someone say ‘that’s just the way things are’ and tell you that you can’t change it? That is the opposite of acceptance because it’s blocking the truth from them. And that’s totally a cop-out. Acceptance is when you see them with compassion as they are, limitations and all, and let go of the need to change their mind or convince them otherwise. You let go of attachments to controlling others and manipulating them to see your point of view. Acceptance allows you to focus on your own mindset without any attachments to others.
Where they are on their journey is perfect for this stage of growth in their lives, just as where you are on yours is perfect.
Because now that you’ve let go of the attachments, you’ve created space for even more love and compassion to flow.
Acceptance means you give unconditional love freely. And that gives you the power to act on what your heart desires. That means that anything anybody says impossible is in fact, now within the realm of possibilities that you are realizing and actualizing right here and now.
So don’t ever think you can’t change things. You just don’t need to change other people’s minds about what matters to you. Stay aligned on your path for good and the right people will come.
