Nothing releases STRESS from my body faster than FORGIVENESS

 .

Forgiveness is about us first and the other other person second. You see, if we can't forgive ourselves first for putting ourselves in a position where another person did us an injustice or harmed us in any way, we can never forgive the other person.  Forgiving myself  is the first action I must take if I want to forgive the other person and enjoy the immense benefits that forgiveness gives me. 

Forgive means to: 1. grant pardon for an offense ; to absolve; to set free from punishment. 2. to cease to feel resentment against yourself or others. 


When I forgive myself  I am set free to create what I want rather than being filled with feelings of resentment, anger and fear that stops me from creating what I want. The unwillingness to forgive myself for my mistakes makes 'nasty feelings' stick to me like SUPER GLUE. 

The reason forgiveness works so powerfully in making me feel energetic and brand new again is because I know, the moment I forgive myself, God does too.

MY FORGIVENESS LIST FOR TODAY

I forgive myself for inadvertently offending some people yesterday.
I forgive myself for not making any money online yesterday.
I forgive myself for being too hard on myself.
I forgive myself for paying attention to the critic in my head. 
I forgive myself for not living a more balanced life.
I forgive myself for trying too hard.
I forgive myself for upsetting people in ways I am not aware of.
I forgive myself for being a perfectionist.
I forgive myself for not being more grateful for what I do have.
I forgive myself for living too much in the future.
I forgive myself for not letting go of the past.
I forgive myself for thoughtlessly stressing myself out.

Leave your thoughts on FORGIVENESS on my blog.

. 
In many ways we seem to live in an unforgiving society. In part, it is because we live in a society based on justice and not forgiveness. While justice has its place, it doesn't forgive and make a person brand new. Only forgiveness can do that.

What do you know about forgiveness?  

Is forgiveness about the another person or exclusively ourselves?

Do you think forgiveness is powerful virtue? 

Or is forgiveness just some form of a sentimental weakness?

What do you understand about forgiveness?

What does forgiveness mean for you?

Have you ever forgiven yourself or another? How did that make you feel?

Self-Forgiveness Sets Me Free From The Mistakes I Make

.
I don't know about you but I can be very hard on myself. You see I have high standards for myself, ridiculously high. I am not sure when I got my standards (performance expectations) or from whom but my self-imposed standards of excellence have caused me to suffer needlessly from time to time... And since I don't like suffering, I discovered forgiving myself for not meeting my high standards releases me from any penalty or punishment (real or imagined) when I don't reach them.. 

Forgive means to: 1. grant pardon for an offense ; to absolve; to set free from punishment. 2. to cease to feel resentment against yourself or others. When I forgive myself I am set free to create what I want rather than being filled with feelings of  guilt, resentment, anger,  anxiety, fear or depression. The unwillingness to forgive myself for my mistakes makes 'nasty feelings' stick to me like SUPER GLUE.  And since I don't like feeling negative, forgiving myself for not meeting my own high standards makes me feel great.

If you have ridiculously high standards for yourself, like I do, then you know that no matter what you do, your best is never good enough... And since that is true for me, I forgive myself for not measuring up. I forgive myself for not being as good as other folks. I forgive myself that my best isn't good enough for other people and in forgiving myself, I accept my best is good enough. it's good enough for me..

Forgiveness Heals Physical and Emotional Wounds.

.
 

Forgive means to: 1. grant pardon for an offense ; to absolve; to set free from punishment. 2. to cease to feel resentment towards yourself or others. When you forgive yourself you are set free to magically create the life you want rather than being filled with feelings of   frustration, anxiety, fear. anger and dislike that stop you from creating your little piece of heaven on earth. The unwillingness to forgive yourself for the negative thoughts you think and for the mistakes you make, makes 'nasty feelings' stick to you like SUPER GLUE.


I am the 'Forgiveness Voice' For others.
 

Many people have lost their ability to forgive themselves for things that stop them from making their dreams come true. Forgiveness sets people free from the thoughts and feelings that have, in the past, stopped them from attracting to themselves, naturally and effortlessly, the things they really do want out of life.. Acting as the VOICE of Forgiveness for others I have listed things people would like to forgive themselves for but have never taken the time to do so. See if you find in the list below things you haven't yet forgiven yourself for or add a 'forgiveness' comment of your own.

I forgive myself for thinking I'm stupid.
I forgive myself for feeling like a failure.
I forgive myself for letting fear stop me.
I forgive myself for not seeing my good.
I forgive myself for not being perfect enough.
I forgive myself for creating lack and scarcity.

I forgive myself for blaming others for my misery.
I forgive myself for not being able to forgive myself.
I forgive myself for criticizing myself about everything.
I forgive myself for being more negative than I like to be.
I forgive myself for feeling I do not measure up to others.
I forgive myself for mentally belittling and criticizing others.
I forgive myself for for judging people as dumb or stupid.
I forgive myself for not allowing my dreams to come true.
I forgive myself for working too hard and not relaxing enough.
I forgive myself for living my life disbelieving I can have what I want.
I forgive myself for not being as smart and intelligent as I would like to be.
I forgive myself for making decisions which do not leave me feeling good.
I forgive myself for blocking myself from receiving money and recognition from people
I forgive myself for allowing feelings of anger and depression to be outside my conscious control
I forgive myself for not knowing how to take full responsibility for everything that happens to me in life.

How I caught 'Forgiveness Fever'...

.

I got involved with Project Forgive early on and have found it to be one of the most inspirational experiences of my lifetime. Inspiring for many reasons beginning with realizing just how powerful forgiveness really was in setting me free from all the things that were holding me back and stopping me from truly being me..

There's a saying regarding the law of attraction that goes like this:

Whatever you FOCUS your attention on, you ATTRACT more of the same...

And when it came to being actively involved with Project Forgive, boy was that ever the truth.. 


Catching Forgiveness FEVER 

The more I focused on forgiveness, the more things I found to forgive myself for. The more I forgave myself, the better I felt. The better I felt, the more I wanted to give and do for Project Forgive. And the more I wanted to do for Project Forgive, the more incredible things I learned about the life changing power of forgiveness. This information on forgiveness is allowing me to become the MAGNIFICENT, POWERFUL, LOVABLE to the core person my creator intended for me to be. This is not only happening to me, it is happening to everyone associated with this project...
 
One of the best things that is coming out of my involvement with Project Forgive is that Forgiveness is rendering my EGO harmless so that pesky creature's ability to torment me and make my life  miserable is losing all power over me....

Forgiveness is Da BOMB!...

Forgive means to: 1. grant pardon for an offense ; to absolve; to set free from punishment. 2. to cease to feel resentment against yourself or others. When you forgive yourself you are set free to create what you want rather than being filled with feelings of resentment, anger, frustration, resistance and dislike.The unwillingness to forgive yourself for your mistakes makes 'nasty feelings' stick to you like SUPER GLUE. 


Beginning My Day With Forgiveness 

I begin every day by forgiving myself for everything and anything that comes up in my mind that is stopping me from SHINING my LIGHT on other people brilliantly.. And every time I consciously forgive myself for something, it frees me up to be a full blown ME...

This is a copy of one of my daily Forgiveness exercises... (The things I forgive myself and others for changes daily. Sometimes it stays the same if I repeat the same mistake)

I forgive myself for trying too hard.
I forgive myself for not being smart enough at times.
I forgive myself for the times I am insensitive to others.
I forgive myself for not knowing how to balance creativity and play.
I forgive myself for not taking better care of my body.
I forgive myself for getting hurt too easily..
I forgive myself for pushing myself past the point of feeling good.

ADDED THESE FORGIVENESS NOTES AS I WROTE THIS ARTICLE

I forgive myself for running behind on my schedule.
I forgive myself for putting too much pressure on myself to get this done as fast as I can.
I forgive myself for beating myself up when I don't meet my own performance expectations.


THE #1 SELF-FORGIVENESS BENEFIT

Forgiveness sets me free from pretending to be something I am not. When I pretend with anyone about anything for any reason, I am not being me but rather a counterfeit me. Being a counterfeit me no longer  feels good to me at all and it stop me from showing up in this world as a BRILLIANT LIGHT that I know each of us are meant to be. That's my forgiveness story and I am sticking to it... :)

Finding Emotional Freedom

.

One of the quickest ways to experience emotional freedom is to forgive others for the injustices they have done to you. If you are seeking to forgive or be forgiven, read my friend's Nora post on the subject of forgiveness, it's excellent and the video that goes along with her message is superb.
