The Fourfold Way: Don't Be Attached to the Outcome

This takes practice: show up, pay attention, tell the truth, and don't be attached to the outcome.

When you do show up, when you pay attention and speak when it is the time for you to speak, and when you speak and tell the truth - simply, clearly, in a few short words - don't be attached to the outcome.

In other words, tell your truth and know that is all you have to do and to say. In other words, tell your truth and trust that your part has been given, and all is well.

Surrender your truth to the future, to the person to whom you've entrusted your truth. Surrender your truth to God, to the Universe, to all that is.

When you have paid attention and told the truth, it gets easier to not be attached to the outcome. You can be free to turn and walk away, knowing you have done as much as you could. In fact, you have given a lot of yourself when you have cared enough to show up, to pay attention, and to tell the truth.

When you have lived fully into that moment, you will move fully into the next, giving yourself and others the gift of your complete presence and your caring ability to tell the truth.

This takes practice. Like most of us, you get to practice for a lifetime!
Warmly,
