Overview
On more than one occasion, I have discovered that I am motivated to compose articles on this subject.
We have all, at some point in our lives, experienced the debilitating inner anguish and uncertainty that comes with the sensation that we have been “wronged” or betrayed in some manner.
This has happened to each and every one of us.
You struggle to comprehend what it is in a person that would have caused them to act in such a manner or to have engaged in such behavior.
You start to question whether there is anything wrong with you.
Have my actions earned me such a punishment?
Am I simply being really self-centered?
I am much too naive and trusting.
Because I loved too profoundly, I am now experiencing the consequences of my actions.
As we strive to make meaning of our lives, the list of thoughts that run through our heads never seems to end.
Perhaps the problem is not with you in the traditional sense of not being able to forgive.
Maybe it’s because you’ve been so forgiving in the past, just to keep putting yourself in a position where you may be taken advantage of.
Your self-esteem, your feeling of faith in yourself, and your personal power have all been diminished to varying degrees as a result of this.
You are fully aware of the extent to which the repercussions of that inner turmoil reach fairly deep.
Your life, on the other hand, might become consumed by wrath and bitterness if you choose one of two extremes.
As a natural drive for survival, you may start to hide who you really are from your family and friends because you place a higher importance on protecting yourself than anybody else.
On the other hand, you may perceive that the undercurrent of pain only surfaces at certain moments, but this does not change the fact that it is always there, like a boulder hidden beneath the carpet of your existence, just waiting to be tripped over and causing unease.
When we examine the components that are required to build a successful and full life, one of the most important pieces of the puzzle is forgiveness, whether that forgiveness is directed at oneself or toward others.
It is one of the obstacles to your achievement that is often ignored, despite how common it is.
Why?
We believe that our emotions are appropriate in response to the harm that has been done to us.
When we are on the right, there is no room for improvement, correct?
You should have these sentiments.
Perhaps if you want the degree of richness and success in your life to remain precisely the same as it is now,
Permit me to emphasize once again that nothing has to be altered, and forgiveness does not have to take place if you are content with how you feel on the inside.
If you are content with the level of personal and financial abundance you are experiencing at the moment, there is no need for any changes to be made.
If you already feel that you have total freedom, there is no need for any changes.
In the context of this conversation, I want to make it quite clear that yes, you absolutely are “justified” in feeling the way that you do at all times, regardless of whether we are discussing forgiveness or some other topic.
Your emotions are always worthy of consideration.
They are always your own personal experiences.
They are always correct, but you have the freedom to decide how you will respond to this fact.

You have a say in what happens to you, and the decisions you make may either help or hurt you.
I am not going to come over here and try to convince you that the way you feel is incorrect.
You have the capacity to pick your emotions, and if those feelings resonate in a manner that is not in accordance with your greatest good and what you desire for your life (plenty and prosperity on all levels), then you get to choose something else!
However, it is necessary to recognize that you have this power, and it is vital to acknowledge that you have this power.
Therefore, if you want to have a feeling or experience of success, it is imperative that you forgive others.
If you don’t choose forgiveness, you can be choosing the absence of it, which can manifest itself in a variety of negative emotions such as rage, resentment, fear, and frustration.
These feelings are misaligned with the energy and emotion of abundance, which is love.
Love is the emotion of abundance.
The majority of the repercussions of being in that condition are negative for you.
Anger, an inability to trust people, inappropriately establishing boundaries, a perceived feeling of righteousness, the formation of excessive or high expectations of self or others, an unwillingness to progress toward intimacy, pain, hurt, anxiety, despair, and fear, to mention just a few, are just a few of the negative emotions that may arise as a result of a perceived sense of righteousness.
To put it more simply, all of these emotions are states of negativity that resonate with a perception of lack.
My experience has taught me that the things that we see in the outside world are a direct mirror of the things that go on inside of us.
If you feel and live in a state of prosperity consciousness and love, your outside world will be an expression of many riches—not just financial, but also your feeling of serenity and pleasure, the status of your relationships, and your health.
If you feel and live in a state of prosperity, consciousness, and love, your exterior world will be an expression of many riches.
If you live your life with a mindset of scarcity, fear, lack, and negativity, then that is what will materialize in the world around you.
If you come from a place of prosperity consciousness, which is all about love, feeling good, happiness, appreciation, and connection to your higher self, you will begin to attract more prosperity than you ever believed was possible.
If you come from a place of prosperity consciousness, which is all about love, feeling good, bliss, appreciation, and connection to your higher self,
How can you possibly be connected, much less genuinely connected, if you haven’t forgiven yourself for your faults and haven’t forgiven your friends and family for theirs?
How has the lack of resources been reflected in your personal life?
Are you able to pinpoint places in your life that either do not practice forgiveness or that have an underlying current of negativity and impede the flow of success in your life?
Now comes the challenging part.
How can I go about forgiving?
Despite the fact that every single individual is unique, here is a formula for fundamental forgiveness.
And by this, I mean genuine forgiveness, as opposed to the type of forgiveness in which one only acts as if they have forgiven another.
It really is a paradigm change.
The Top 8 Lessons Learned from Forgiveness
1.
Recognize that the ability to forgive is a decision and even a talent.
You weren’t born with an inability to forgive, and you shouldn’t be too hard on yourself about where you are right now in terms of your capacity to do so.
Take care of yourself and acknowledge the person you are right now.
2.
Begin by making a list of the ways you have forgiven others.
Have you ever intentionally worked through the steps necessary to forgive someone?
What did you find to be successful?
What didn’t happen?
Consider what benefit you get from harboring the grief, sadness, or anger you feel.
Whether you agree with it or not, there is a payout. (protection, doing what’s right, etc.)
3.
Make it crystal clear to yourself that the process of forgiving someone involves shifting from a state of fear (a consciousness of scarcity) to one of love (a consciousness of plenty).
What do you believe fear, rage, and resentment are all capable of achieving? (not much) What do you believe love is capable of doing in the world? (almost anything!!) What kind of resonance does this have for you?
In regard to this situation, what decision do you plan to make?
4.
Come to terms with the truth that the only person you can really alter is yourself.
Within that, acknowledge that you are capable of altering yourself at any given moment.
It’s termed making a “shift” in the industry.
Putting fear, anger, and other negative emotions aside and moving into love is a good practice.
Take note of the fact that it becomes easier in real life once you have practiced it or pretended to do it.
5.
Realize that forgiving someone does not mean diminishing your own suffering or the acts of others, nor does it mean remaining in a position that does not respect you, such as a work or relationship that is abusive and does not improve or change.
It’s about making a deliberate decision to let go for the greatest benefit of you and those around you, or for the highest good of everyone.
It is a state in which feelings such as resentment, wrath, blame, and judgment are absent.
You have the power to let go of the past and build a future filled with peace and prosperity by making choices that are congruent with those outcomes.
It’s about setting yourself free and opening up opportunities, whether those opportunities lie in your professional life, your personal connections, or your physical well-being.
6.
Allow it to go.
Create a ritual of forgiveness that resonates with you and makes you feel wonderful.
Start a candle fire.
Create letters that will not be sent.
Use writing to let off steam and to physically put your emotions on paper.
You are the one who decides how much you will let yourself spin and how much steam you will let out.
Maintain your sense of perspective.
Keep in mind that whatever you put your attention on will grow, so try not to dwell too much on the negative aspects of the situation and instead go ahead with “lightness” and love.
Make a conscious effort to replace negative ideas with more positive ones, such as “I choose to let go and forgive,” “I choose to put myself first,” or “I choose to honor myself.” If you believe you have forgiven someone, but you still have anger against that person, then you have not really forgiven them.
Put yourself in your own shoes and ask yourself, “Am I willing to let this go?” When? (Could it be now?) Never stop questioning, and never stop releasing.
7.
Realize that you cannot free yourself from your own suffering if you refuse to forgive those who have wronged you.
You will be doing yourself a favor if you start to forgive and let go.
It is beneficial to both your physical and mental health.
The words of Carolyn Myss ring true here: “Your biography becomes biology.”
Learn to accept the fact that most individuals do not want to do you harm on purpose and that most of the time, actions are performed and crimes are committed because of the anxieties, concerns, and anguish that the offender is experiencing themselves.
You don’t need to cling onto their wrongdoings—or risk having it someday become your own biology—or else it would be painful and not worth it!
8.
Recognize them for the wonderful souls that they are—souls that were born from the source of love and everything that is in the universe.
I have a question for you: Would it be difficult to forgive the love that is the origin of all love, the love that we each are?
Nope.
If you make the conscious decision to inhabit this vulnerable zone, practicing forgiveness will come much more naturally to you.
The first thing you need to do is make the decision to forgive.
You do not need to hurry the process since understanding how to forgive and putting that knowledge to use in your life is essential to achieving success, inner peace, and spiritual development.
