Addition By Subtracting

By Evan Sanders


It's time to erase. It's time to get rid of some things that don't serve you anymore.

Having more isn't always a good thing. Sometimes, you have to subtract to add. Sometimes you have to get rid of all of the non-essentials to truly live the life you were meant to live. It's not the most common path but it's a great one.

Maybe it's about time you get rid of all of the unnecessary things surrounding you so you can uncover the person you have always been.

You drop your fears, the judgments you have of yourself and others, and all of the other things that have been tacked onto your life without your permission. So when you take all of those things away, you remove every single last bit of toxic energy from your life.

What would it be like if you lived completely free of all of that?

I found out. Wasn't comfortable because I felt lost for a while, but I really did find out. In fact, you know how anxiety inducing it can be to really begin to comprehend that you have absolutely no control over the future?

Of course this transition will challenge you. That's the point. But through this challenge you will transition into something much more likely to turn you into something great.

Little did I realize at that time, the only time I have is now. Right now. There's nothing else. You can have some sort of idea of what you want to do down the line but that's really it. The only way to make those things become a reality is by showing up here and now and that's all that you've really got.

Subtract to add. As frustrating and scary as that might be, work with it. It will add so much to your life.

When you can connect to the present moment, take away the nonessentials from your life, and learn to appreciate what you have, you are creating a life that is going to be full of happiness and love.

So live that way. Let it all be free.
