Then the questionable life changes crop up. Should I stay or should I go? Should I buy or save? Should I forgive or forget? Should I move or not?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The shoulds become a thirsty internal craving as we try to process the best outcome for our life.<\/p>\n I have a friend who is in a negative situation, and he\u2019s hanging on for dear life because he wants to be brave and tough it out. He told me, \u201cGiving up is not an option,\u201d<\/em><\/strong> which so many of us believe.<\/p>\n But when holding on to something hurts our health and potential to be happy, we have to look closely at why we\u2019re choosing to stay.<\/p>\n Life is a balance<\/strong> of holding on and letting go. We strive to make the right choice but how do we know when it is truly time to let go and move on?<\/p>\n Romantic relationships, jobs, even places we live have an expiration date. Sometimes we hold on to things that aren\u2019t working out of fear we won\u2019t find something better.<\/p>\n Perhaps our greatest fear is the unknown, which is why so many of us grasp, hold on and manipulate our situations trying to control our surroundings. But the outcome is always the same: more pain, immense frustration and ginormous guilt and blame.<\/strong><\/p>\n To avoid the toxic outburst of staying in situations that no longer serve you, ask yourself if any of the following 20 signs apply.<\/p>\n 1. When your thoughts go to memories more than the present.<\/p>\n 2. When the situation causes you more pain than joy.<\/p>\n 3. When you expect, hope and plead for the person, place or situation to change.<\/p>\n 4. When you become complacent, bored or resentful.<\/p>\n 5. When the pattern persists even though you tried to fix it.<\/p>\n 6. When you feel alone, unheard or disrespected.<\/p>\n 7. When the situation is holding you back from growing and being who you want to be.<\/p>\n 8. When you stay, hoping and expecting things to get better.<\/p>\n 9. When you cry more than you laugh and love.<\/p>\n 10. When you feel exhausted emotionally, spiritually and physically.<\/p>\n 11. When you have lost your passion and joy.<\/p>\n 12. When your core beliefs and values have changed and you sacrifice who you are.<\/p>\n 13. When you stop having fun.<\/p>\n 14. When you fear this is the best it will be.<\/p>\n 15. When you force a smile to mask the pain.<\/p>\n 16. When you lose who you are and stop dreaming.<\/p>\n 17. When you hold on out of fear of the unknown.<\/p>\n 18. When you sense you are holding onto something meant to be let go.<\/p>\n 19. When the thought of being free of the situation feels expansive.<\/p>\n 20. When you believe in a better life for yourself.<\/p>\n This list serves as a compassionate guide to help you make the right choice for you.<\/strong><\/p>\n If you found yourself saying yes to the majority of these questions, it may be time for you to take a step forward and let go.<\/p>\n Trust your future and know you will be guided to happiness<\/a>.<\/p>\nThe problem? In doing this, we often hold onto what no longer works.<\/h3>\n
