Things I am letting go

Spread the love

This has been a post that I have wanted to write for a long time. I debated on whether or not I would actually post it or just journal it out. This has been a post I debated on posting because I feel like a lot of people think the same thing, but think they are alone. I know I felt like that for a very long time. I didn’t mention what was bothering me or ask for help. It wasn’t fair to myself for holding it in, and the person I would explode on because they didn’t know things were bothering me. These are things I am letting go.

-Overthinking things that I have said or done

-Getting in my own head

-Materialistic Lifestyle – working towards a capsule wardrobe

-The past. It happened, and I need to stop beating myself up for it

-Past things done to me. I forgive people, and stop letting it consume me

-Perfection

-People pleasing: this should be at the top of the list because I care sometimes way too much what other people.

-Toxic People: Letting go of relationships that do not serve me anymore

-Comparsion

-Fear/Doubt

-Fear of Failure: I have let failure stop me from doing a lot of things that I have always wanted. I didn’t want to look stupid or actually fail. It took me a while that failure is not really failure. I am learning what didn’t work so I don’t do that again. It’s a learning opportunity.

-Comfort Zone: I am getting outside my normal and pushing towards my goals.

-Overspending: I’m creating a budget and sticking to it. I am no longer spending money on things I don’t need.

-Grudges: I can hold a grudge like none other, but it’s not the healthiest thing. Plus whoever I am holding a grudge against probably isn’t even thinking about it. So why let it take up space.

-Being productive all the time: This is one of my biggest weaknesses.

This is my ongoing and ever-growing list of things I am letting go. Is there anything on this list you need to let go? What are things you need to let go? On the flip side what are things I want more of. Leave a message in the comments something you need to let go of?

We got there around 6:30pm, and didn’t leave until 9:15pm. The website says the walk will take about an hour, but you can go at your own pace. There are so many lanterns in each animal exhibit.

We started going through the Asian Trail, there was year of animals. The Africa section was my favorite, but I am not going to tell you why. But it was a nice surprise, and I was way too excited.

There were hands on activities throughout the zoo, but by the time we got to some of the areas it was closed.
-make your lantern
-paint rocks to be placed around the zoo
-tattoos
-music each night

What are your “musts” when traveling? Let me k What are your “musts” when traveling? Let me know in the comments! 

These are the things I always have when I travel: (arrow down)

1. Spare credit card/bank card - I typically bring this, but before my last trip my regular bank card got hacked. Now I make sure to always have 2 cards with me. 
2. Portable charge/power banks - I have a charger that I keep in my car all the time. It's a 4 in 1 charger, but I also have portable charge that I keep in my bag. It has come in handy more times that I can count for me and other people. 
3. Reusable water bottle - I have my Stanley when I am driving. While I am hiking I use either a water bladder or a hydroflask. 
4. Reusable Bags - My favorite is the Mary Kay roll up bag. It has 4 plastic bags that holds everything I need for my morning/evening routine and shower time. 
5. Books - I will most always have a physical book along with my kindle app. I love to read. During my hikes I stop throughout for snacks and reading. 
6. Wet Wipes - My favorite is HyperGo because they have so many different scents. They are also 12x12 so usually 1 works for the whole body. 

In the reel - Things I won't travel without

Caption - What are your travel musts? let me know in the comments because I am going to compile a list and share later.

portable charger - I have a small bag where I keep all my cords & portable chargers.
