An Alternative to All or Nothing

 

It’s got to be . . .

• Good or bad.
• Hard or easy.
• Me or the business.
• Me or the family.

 

The brain is programmed for all or nothing thinking only because it feels easier to make one choice so it can then set out to find evidence to support the choice.

 

It takes more brain power to believe that it can be both, therefore it’s best to settle for one or the other.

 

Here’s where it gets into a pickle.

 

If it believes that there’s only one choice, then “it better be the RIGHT choice.”

 

This is where the turmoil and the pressure to prove that you made the right choice come.

 

Followed by the need to be seen as someone who “made the right choice.”

 

Followed by doubt, regret or “the grass is greener on the other side” thinking.

 

In the end, you’re still using more brain power.

 

It doesn’t have to be all or nothing.

 

Being human is about being, doing and having the All AND No---Thing.

 

You get to let go of the or and choose the and, the contrast and the expansive range of the in between.

 

This allows you to step into grace to receive all that you are, all that you do, and all that you have.

 

You can then detach from the need to be one or the other.

 

This is what it means to fully accept yourself.
