In working this morning on a client and thinking about my own relationship to mistakes, there seems to be a common thread and dilemma. That dilemma lies in that we don’t let go of our mistakes. We take our mistakes to heart and the guilt alone will keep them alive and damaging the results we desire.
We have all made mistakes but our memories of them are wreaking havoc. When we don’t let go of those memories, we continue to suffer from those mistakes. By letting go of those mistakes and the damage they caused at the time, we are free to no longer suffer the damaging effects of those mistakes. When we don’t let go of them, we continue to suffer the effects from them.
Often when I work with someone, I clear the connection to the memory of our mistakes but am told we can’t move on from that incident yet. The reason turns out to be the guilt attached to that memory. When I include the guilt associated with the situation, I then can move onto something else that is negatively affecting a challenge is experiencing today.
Guilt can be crippling. Until we forgive ourselves and let go of the guilt, there are lifetimes of mistakes that can still haunt us. Forgiveness and letting go are sometimes the biggest challenges but provide the biggest rewards when dealing with our mistakes.
