Louise Hay

Impatience is only another form of resistance. It is resistance to learning and to changing. When we demand that it be done right now, completed at once, then we don’t give ourselves time to learn the lesson involved with the problem we have created.

The past is over and done and cannot be changed. This is the only moment we can experience. Even when we lament about the past, we are experiencing our memory of it in this moment, and losing the real experience of this moment in the process.

Exercise: I Love Myself

I assume you are already saying, “I approve of myself” almost nonstop. This is a powerful foundation. Keep it up for at least a month.

Now take a pad of paper and at the top write, “I LOVE MYSELF; THEREFORE...”

Love who and what you are and what you do. Laugh at yourself and at life, and nothing can touch you. It’s all temporary anyway. Next lifetime you will do it differently anyway, so why not do it differently right now?

“All is well. Everything is working out for my highest good. Out of this situation only good will come. I am safe.”

I wake up each morning with blessings and gratitude for the wonderful life I lead, and I make the choice to think happy thoughts no matter what others are doing.

The only moment you ever live in is this moment. It’s the only time you have any control over.

Be willing to allow the changes to happen when they come up in your life. Be aware that where you do not want to change is exactly the area where you need to change the most.
