10 things to let go of when you're ready to become a better you

6. Don't try to rescue, fix or change people.

 We all have someone in our lives that we wish we could improve, especially when it comes to those we love.

 However, no matter how much love we have for someone, we can never save them from a difficult situation.

 It is not our responsibility to change them, but we can be a light that inspires them to change for themselves.

7. Let go of all the weight of trauma and abuse in your past.

 We all have a painful past that hurt us in some way.

 To become a better version of ourselves, we must let go of that past and use that pain to be reborn and change the way we are.

 You can never undo what happened in the past, or get back the person you used to be.

 But you can use your history to make you stronger, feel the grief and then let it go.

8. Stop complaining about everything that doesn't go your way.

 In life, there are always unforeseen events.

 Sometimes, you're late for work and it affects your performance, or someone spills coffee on your shirt.

 However, this doesn't mean you have to constantly complain.

 Stop worrying about these little things.


9. Stop settling in life.

 Whether in relationships, career or any other aspect of your life, stop constantly looking for the easy stuff.

 Life is meant to be lived outside of your comfort zone and you can't expect results if you don't strive for them.

 Growth, as scary as it can be, is never found within comfort.

10. Stop distracting yourself from your inner problems.

 We all at some point use distractions, such as alcohol or Netflix, to evade our thoughts.

 But no matter how many distractions we use, we can never escape the darkness inside us if we don't face what really affects us.

 Take responsibility and face your inner problems in a courageous way.
