From Resistance To Acceptance
🍁A Journey you can begin
When I think about journey from resistance to acceptance. Surely, my brain respond “it’s not easy”. Brain again put some questions kinda:
Is it necessary?
Is it even possible?
Resistance and acceptance both are different keys of the same door. But here i stopped, which key should open the door?
Wait. But what kind off door actually are?
Door of the end destination.
Resistance is the tendency to avoid, deny or delay what feels uncomfortable. Surely, it gives us relief, satisfaction but for temporarily by allowing us to ignore reality. That’s why procrastination , denials, laziness and comfort occurs. I can’t say it shocking but a questionable thing for sure that why our mind or brain drown towards wrong or negative side.
The answer is simple because of comfort and feeling easier.
Same as for resistance, our mind is naturally drown toward resistance because it feels easier. It protect us from discomfort but only for a moment.
On the other hand, if we talk about acceptance, it means facing the reality as it is. Acceptance doesn’t tell about to give up, it simply tell us how to acknowledge the truth and choosing to move forward.
Now wonder, why acceptance feels heavy even though it is the healthier path ?
Because it requires : effort, awareness, letting go of comfort and taking the responsibilities.
That’s why resistance takes over acceptance.
Resistance feels powerful because it gives instant satisfaction. It creates an illusion of peace through denial. For a short time, it makes us feel better However, in the long run, it leads to stagnation and missed growth.
Look closely.
At first, it may sound unlikely.
Resistance usually pushes us away from truth but if we become aware of it, if we question it, it can become a turning point.
Just pause and ask:
Why am I resisting this?
What am I trying to avoid?
Then ask:
Is this helping me grow?
Is this leading me toward a better version of me?
Or is this just giving me temporary Comfort?
The answers will lead clarity.
And Clarity leads to better choices.
Resistance is a key which locks the door but acceptance is a key that unlock the door. And when door opens, your destination is in front of your eyes. Set your destination door and then use the key carefully.
Resistance can deform your present self BUT acceptance can modify your future self.
