Question about letting go?


I am going into the nursing profession and know i am not going to be able to analyze my personal problems while on the job.
anyways, my question is... how do i get over things? like little problems life throws at me.. or failed relationships.. or things said by friends that hurt?
how do you let things like that just go? and be able to focus on your daily life?

just stand up and start again=we all goof up at times=it's a way we learn about life

On your everyday stress have you tried to just think about what is bothering you give your self a time limit for it to bug you like 1 min.then after that min. tell it to just go away...it will be hard at first but it does work...at the end of each day lay and meditate that only positive things will help you the next day and tell the negative things to be left behind...with practice it will help...good luck

Keep yourself busy sweetie. Go do things on your time off. Make new friends and hold your head high. You will be just fine.

While you are on the job,their are a million and one things that will flood your mind,in allot of cases the real problems that you encounter every day will far overshadow your own.Try and put aside a little time to write down your concerns and problems,in this way you give them voice,and just getting them out of you can help to resolve unwanted negative thoughts.Also,you can try a prayer or mantra before you fall asleep that requests your problems be gone,granting forgiveness for all those who hurt you,and asking that you be forgiven in return for any hurt you may have caused.

Letting go is probably one of the hardest things for most people to do.. I know its been a life long chore for me .. and life is about good-byes as much as it is about hello's .. Still it isn't easy.
A friend of mine sent me a great reading on "letting go" .. I will share it with you here:

LET IT GO

There are people who can walk away from you.

And hear me when I tell you this!

When people can walk away from you: let them walk.

I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with
you,loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you,
staying attached to you.

I mean hang up the phone.

When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you,you can't make them stay.

Let them go.

And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's
part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.

You've got to know when it's dead. You've got to know when it's over.
Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye.

It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful,and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me.And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay.

Let them go!!

If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to.

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ..

LET IT GO!!!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth...

LET IT GO!!!

If someone has angered you ...

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge ..

LET IT GO!!!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction ...

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents ..

LET IT GO!!!

If you have a bad attitude...

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better...

LET IT GO!!!

If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him...

LET IT GO!!!

If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship....

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves..

LET IT GO!!!

If you're feeling depressed and stressed ...

LET IT GO!!!

If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to...

LET IT GO!!!

Let the past be the past.

Forget the former things.

I use the Serenity Prayer. I think the key to you being able to let go of personal problems is the fact that you recognize it as a problem. You've addressed the issue openly, hopefully you'll get some good answers here, and I know you will learn a lot about letting go in the nursing profession. It's a lot easier said than done, though. I don't know that any of us ever totally get over some things in life, but it's how we deal with it that counts. I always try to see the cup half full of water while I used to always see it as half empty. We all mature and react in different ways, so give yourself some time. Writing a journal works for me. I'll go back and read it several months later and the things that were bothering me have usually been resolved. Sometimes it helps to have a friend to talk to. They can usually see more in yourself than you can, and help you get on with your life. If you are a Christian then I would suggest prayer. I think the nursing profession will work wonders for you. By focusing on the problems of others you will possibly see your own problems in a different way and be able to let go. Lots of luck, and keep me informed. God Bless!

i guess that you have to ignore the stuff that bother you and the people that you don't care about and their opinions as well....you have to set a goal and an ambition for your self...that is how you can let go cause once u focus on your goal...you will never think of any small problems and you need to have faith in what you do and believe in it...life is full of problems you can never get rid of them so ignore

Be present and to do so it may help to stop believing your thoughts.

Try untensing and saying "let go." That is the same as surrendering. "surrender..."
