Sometimes when we want to keep something in our lives, We hold on to it so tightly.
It drains us physically, and emotionally until we are a hollow shell.
The pain is brutal, but we hold on tighter.
Sometimes it's better just to let go of those things...

Why?

It might come back

I don't' believe in fate or anything like that. I believe that you get out of what you put work into. And what opportunities you take.
But there is always such a thing as overdoing it. Where we just put in way too much effort. That it causes issues.
If I wanted to grow my website, So I commented 1,000 times on peoples Facebook statuses, Wouldn't that be overkill?

Things need balance, And if the other person isn't invested or that opportunity can't handle the effort, You'll never get what you want.

I had to let go of my business

My drop shipping store. They owe me five digits. I'm in debt because I purchased my customers products.
I kept going despite this. It was stupid.
But finally, I had to force myself to "Let go" because the platform couldn't keep up on paying me.
Now I'm forced to wait, For over a year to get my money. This crippled me. Because I was stubborn and didn't let go sooner.
I mean, I'll still get my money, And I'll probably get my store going again once I get paid. But at a much smaller scale.
I had to let go, Because of my investment of time, was too much for the platform to handle.

Don't refuse to let go Because you have time or money invested.

Sometimes that gets us holding on to toxic relationships or bad financial investments. Because we put a lot of money or time into it.
Sometimes though it's a dead end road, And you can take out what you can and then leave.

Some people may feel robbed because of the "time" investment. But instead look at the time you spent like a learning experience. By not letting go, Things will get worse and that time you "wasted" will often grow.
You can only do the same thing every day for so long before you stop learning.
Once you hit that point, you'll be throwing time and money at something that will never pay off.

Learn, Then Come Back

If you MUST have whatever it is. Let go. Then come back later, After you've given your self a chance to look at the situation with another perspective. When we become so obsessed with something that we can't see our lives without it. Our judgment becomes clouded. Once we let it go for a while, WE gain a new perspective on the situation, Similar to those on the outside. We can then truly know if that person or opportunity is right for us.
