Stage 1 of the very long journey of life is like quicksand. The more you struggle, the deeper you get pulled under.
It takes a lot to rise above the quicksand.
To rise above, you need to focus on the outcome, not the current environment, because if you focus on the environment of the quicksand, you will struggle, try to move, the more you move, try, you more you will be pulled under.
The stages are like steps on the staircase, the one higher requires one to be lighter than the next one, letting go, more and more of the previous stage’s heavy luggage. We cannot rise when we hold onto the past baggage.
Let go and rise, focus on what you want and work towards it, and lighter and lighter you become.
LET GO and RISE by FOCUSING on what you want and working towards it. Keep working towards it, till you achieve it.
