“Respect dissolves resistance.”
~ Harry Palmer
Whenever you resist something, be it a person, place, thing, an experience or emotion, it controls you. You’ll continue to suffer and struggle until you quit resisting.
So next time you find yourself suffering ask yourself, “What am I resisting?” Whatever it is, recognize that it holds power over you. Recognize that you’re allowing it to cause you to suffer. Just because of that, my friend, it deserves some respect. Why not stop fighting it and see what it might have to offer you instead?
Not only will you be amazed at how quickly the struggle drains away, but you might just find that what you’ve been resisting is exactly what you’ve been asking for.
It’s worth trying, my friend, don’t you think?
