Cómo dejarlo todo: 12 secretos para la libertad definitiva
Since there’s no point in asking you how many times you wished you could suelta de todo, I’ll start with the following:
¿Cuántas veces te has encontrado pensando que la hierba es más verde al otro lado de la valla?
How many times have you been jealous of someone having something you don’t, blamed others, or had regrets about something you should’ve or shouldn’t have done?
I bet one too many. Because we’re seres humanos and it’s in our nature to yearn for something we don’t have, to blame others when things go wrong, and to blame ourselves for lack of courage.
Quedamos marcados por experiencias dolorosassomos testigos de seres queridos herirnos, y pasamos la mitad de nuestras vidas en el proceso de curación.
Even though we know there’s no point in torturing ourselves, we still have a mal rato dejándolo todo.
Instead of living in the moment – focusing on what’s in front of us and the vast possibilities and opportunities – we choose to fight the battles we already lost.
Elegimos esforzarnos por cambiar cosas que no pueden cambiarse, sino sólo aceptarse.
Y esa es la belleza de dejarse llevar.
When something bothers you and you don’t déjalo irte persigue y se convierte en parte de tu vida cotidiana.
Le impide experimentar plenamente la momento presente y poniendo sus necesidades, bienestar, y felicidad en primer puesto.
“Some people believe holding on and hanging in there are signos de gran fuerza.
Sin embargo, hay momentos en los que se necesita mucha más fuerza para saber cuándo suelta and then do it.” – Ann Lander
Desprenderse de los apegos y salir de su zona de confort son algunos de los lo más difícil you’ll ever do in life, but also of the bravest and necessary for your personal development (and autocuidado emocional).
You could spend half of your life waiting for things to change, only to realize that you weren’t waiting but wasting your precious time. To live means to cry, laugh, curse, dance, but it also means to LET GO.
Suplicar, esperar y contemplar son los mayores enemigos de la verdadera felicidad y de alcanzar tu verdadero potencial, mientras que la proceso de dejar ir es el único camino hacia la libertad definitiva y una vida más fácil!
Este camino requiere que te desprendas de TODO para conseguir NADA.
1. Dejar ir los apegos adictivos
Seres humanos are wired to connect with a wide variety of “things,” from people to objects. We enamorarse with our eyes and we fall in love with other people’s quirks and flaws.
Nos enamoramos de medicamentos, drogas, remedios, ropa y zapatos que nos hacen sentir mejor.
When we’re crazy about something or someone, we tend to spend the majority of our time dreaming about it. We daydream about how it would feel to kiss that one person and feel the warmth of their arms around us.
If we don’t own that one object of our desire, we daydream of the moment we’ll finally win it or buy it.
Nos convencemos de que estar con esa persona o tener ese objeto es exactamente lo que nos falta en la vida. Pensamos que son la clave para alcanzar la verdadera felicidad.
When we’re experiencing unrequited love or spending as much time as possible with the object of our desire, we develop addictive attachments.
By only focusing on that one thing, we neglect other aspects of our life because we think that without it, we’d feel miserable.
The truth is, we get addicted to persons and things because we’re trying to fill a void – to compensate for something that we lack deep inside our soul.
Dejar ir de apegos adictivos es un autocuidado method that will give you enough space and time to think about what it is that you’re truly missing.
It will help you find true happiness within yourself, because that’s the only place where you can find it.
2. Dejar ir los deseos que consumen
How often have you stared at that one piece of clothing in a store and contemplated whether to buy it or not. Even though deep down in your soul you know you don’t need it, you still buy it. Why?
Porque lo QUIERES. Quieres esa camiseta, ese pantalón, ese par de zapatos, ese vestido, esa máscara de pestañas, lo que sea. Y el acento está en queriendo it, alias deseando eso.
Our desires often trick us into believing we need a certain thing and without it, we’ll never be happy.
Modern media is subtly sending us messages that we’ll never be pretty if we don’t buy that one lipstick that’s been advertised by celebs or models.
Or if you don’t buy that magical pan advertised on TV, you’ll feel miserable for the rest of your life cooking with a regular pan. And that’s when our desires kick in!
We start wanting and desiring all these things, even though we don’t need the majority of them. Our consuming nature enslaves us to believe the only path to feeling content is that of excessive buying.
Instead of being in control of what we want and need, we let desires control us. And that’s when they become toxic. So dejarse llevar de ellos es uno de los pasos necesarios para experimentar máxima libertad!

3. Dejar de juzgar
Judging other people has become a trending hobby in our society. By judging, I don’t only mean judging other people’s decisions – there is so much more to it.
Juzgar incluye estar enfadado, cotillear constantemente, quejarse de las cosas, etcétera. Juzgar significa básicamente estar constantemente pendiente de cualquier imperfección o defecto.
Es una de las cosas más tóxicas de todo el mundo.
Ahora, la pregunta es: ¿Por qué lo hacemos? Y la respuesta es: Porque esperamos demasiado de la gente y/o porque queremos tener el control.
If someone does something wrong, we judge them, even though it has nothing to do with us. When we’re talking about other people, we’re passively expressing our desire to be in control.
Queremos cambiar todo a nuestro alrededor a la manera que queremos y pensamos que es correcta. Pero olvidamos que juzgar, chismorrear y quejarnos constantemente no cambiará nada.
We forget that we’re not in a position to judge others because we don’t know what’s exactly going on in their minds and lives.
En única persona we can change is ourselves, and that’s why we shouldn’t (only) focus on changing others.
Un consejo útil siempre es bienvenido, pero juzgar es algo que debemos evitar por el bien de los bienestar tanto de nosotros mismos como de los demás.
4. Dejar de lado las expectativas poco realistas
You know that your partner is a total non-romantic yet you still expect them to shower you with grand romantic gestures. And when they don’t, you get offended and disappointed.
You expect people to say what you really want to hear, you want them to value the same things as you, and you count on them behaving in a certain way. When they don’t, you start feeling mad, angry, and betrayed.
Pero, ¿es realmente realista esperar todo eso?
Por supuesto que no. Tener expectativas poco realistas de nuestro seres queridosamigos, o familiares significa esperar constantemente que hagan y digan todo lo que queremos que hagan. La palabra clave es poco realista.
It’s time to open your eyes and develop reasonable expectations instead of unrealistic ones. It will save you tons of nerves, time, and trouble.
When you know that what you’re expecting of others is reasonable, then chances are your expectations will be met.
Dejar ir of unrealistic expectations means saving yourself from that delusional world you’ve been stuck in for a while now. It means creating a new one where you welcome freedom and get rid of living in a fantasy!
5. Dejar atrás el pasado
A suelta del pasado significa suelta of the things you cannot change. Everything you’ve said or done, your tears, happy moments and less happy ones all belong to the past.
Your heartbreaks, disappointments, pain, and various hardships happened for a reason. They’ve shaped you into the person you are today. You’ve become bolder, stronger, and wiser.
So, thinking about the past and wanting to change it means wanting to change yourself. And that’s not possible. Nothing in life happens by chance and you are exactly where you need to be at this very moment.
Contemplar el pasado o preocuparse por el futuro le impide vivir su vida al máximo y disfrutar de cada segundo de su precioso tiempo.
A suelta del pasado a veces significa suelta of someone you love, which is not an easy thing to do. But, it’s necessary.
Suelta of him if you know that he took you for granted and couldn’t make you happy. Suelta of her if you know she’s not the right one for you.
Cuando suelta of all the things that prevent you from enjoying the present, you’ll suelta de una enorme carga que te impedía aprender a volar hacia el futuro.
6. Dejar ir la necesidad de tener el control
If I’ve learned one thing during my humble life, it is the following: Life is uncertain. It’s full of ups and downs, and you never know what will happen next.
You can plan everything in detail, but chances are that life will disrupt all you’ve planned.
Why? Because nothing in life is constant. Every second, minute, hour, and day, there are thousands and thousands of major and minor changes that we’re often unaware of.
Cada cambio, por grande o pequeño que sea, influye en el resultado de nuestros planes y te acerca a despertar espiritual.
The sad truth is we’re not in control of anything, so dejarse llevar de la necesidad de controlarlo todo es la única cura.
We cannot control what will happen at our job, in our relationship, with our family, and so on. We can only adapt, find a silver lining, and believe that everything that’s going on is happening for a reason.
Cuando entendemos todo eso, nuestra vida se vuelve mucho más fácil.

7. Abandonar planes y objetivos
It’s true that having plans and goals is a sign of determination and strength, and a recipe for success. But, sometimes they prevent us from one important thing: Vivir el momento.
Cuando nos centramos únicamente en todos los planes y objetivos vitales que queremos alcanzar en el futuro, a menudo nos olvidamos de abrazar el presente.
Nos perdemos en constantes ensoñaciones sobre lo que ocurrirá y nos olvidamos de estar agradecidos por las cosas que ya han ocurrido.
Para empezar a vivir el momento, agradece todo lo que ya tienes y crea vibraciones positivas. A veces, necesitas suelta del deseo de conseguir más.
And I’m not saying that you need to suelta de ella para siempre, sino durante un cierto periodo de tiempo para que te recargues y refresques tu perspectiva.
Recuerda que la felicidad no consiste en tener todo lo que quieres, sino en aprovechar todo lo que ya tienes en la vida.
8. Dejar ir el dolor
When we are hurt by someone in one way or another, it’s natural to feel pain. We hate everyone around us, lock ourselves in our den, and watch Netflix for hours while binge eating ice cream and cursing our destiny.
And that’s totally okay because it’s a part of the proceso de curación.
But, if we’re constantly reminding ourselves of what someone has done to us and reliving it on repeat, we’re deliberately depriving ourselves of freedom and happiness.
Holding grudges for an eternity in the hopes that one day you’ll repay the hurt they caused you is extremely toxic for our autoestima y en general bienestar.
Dejar ir del dolor significa encontrar el valor para suelta of the things you cannot change. You cannot change what happened, but you can change how you’ll react to it.
Encontrar la paz interior y aprender a perdonar a los demás y a uno mismo es una verdadera bendición.
9. Dejar ir el futuro
Dejar ir del futuro no se trata sólo de dejarse llevar of plans and goals – it is so much more. It’s also about dejarse llevar de todas las preocupaciones y pensamientos ansiosos sobre acontecimientos futuros.
When we’re constantly expecting something bad to happen in the future, we get frozen in our own body and cannot act. Overthinking is one of the biggest enemies of every ser humano.
It’s when you’re convinced that you’re bound to fail before you even tried anything. You might avoid public speeches and similar because you’re convinced everyone would laugh at you.
O puede que te preocupes incesantemente por cosas irrelevantes que tú mismo sabes que nunca te ocurrirán.
Si desea suelta de todo, necesita suelta de tus miedos al fracaso y a pensar demasiado, y deja de darte por sentado.
You’re an amazing ser humano; sería un desperdicio no liberar todo tu potencial. Y la única forma de hacerlo es creer en ti mismo, en lugar de pensar en lo que podría pasar.
10. Dejar de comparar
¿Te sorprendes a menudo comparándote con una chica o un chico más guapo? ¿O pensando que la hierba es más verde en el otro lado?
Al igual que juzgar, comparar también está profundamente arraigado en nuestro ser. Pensamos constantemente que otra persona es más lista, más guapa y más capaz que nosotros.
Al centrarnos en los demás, nos olvidamos de alabar nuestra propia singularidad.
Just because someone else has something you don’t, this doesn’t mean you should feel less worthy for not having the exact same thing. Owning things is not what makes us happy!
The definition of freedom and happiness is in our heads. It is not in the things around us, so it’s high time we stop comparing each other and wishing to be something we’re not.
Cada uno de nosotros tiene sus propias imperfecciones y eso es exactamente lo que nos hace únicos y especiales.
Just because some of your friends are in a relationship and you’re still single, this doesn’t mean you’ll be forever single.
Cada uno tiene su propio camino, así que compararnos con los demás es una pérdida de tiempo. Dejar ir de la necesidad de ser como los demás y de tener cosas que los demás tienen es la única manera de descubrir tu verdadero yo.

11. Dejar ir la ira
La ira es una de las emociones más poderosas, capaz de destruir nuestra otrora relaciones sanasy la vida entera. Esta emoción es a menudo responsable de que actuemos por impulso.
When we’re feeling angry and bitter, we tend to say and do things we normally wouldn’t. We let this toxic emotion penetrate our being, and when we do that, it is only a matter of time before it bursts.
En lugar de centrarse únicamente en emociones negativas, we need to concentrate on how we can change the situation and improve things. Yelling or fighting always makes things worse, but we’re often not aware of that.
Dejar ir de la ira significa no dejar que esta emoción tóxica entre en tu sistema y perturbe tu funcionamiento. Significa protegerte de los resultados negativos y centrarte en lo que puedes hacer en el momento.
And if there’s nothing you can do about it, then just suelta de todo. Deja ir la ira; suelta de intentar hacer las cosas bien.
Because some things are not meant to be right – they are meant to be forgiven and forgotten.
12. Dejar ir el miedo
El miedo es otra emoción poderosa que puede impedirnos alcanzar todo nuestro potencial. La verdad es que pasamos casi la mitad de nuestra vida preocupándonos por cosas.
Tememos lo desconocido, tememos el cambio, tememos nuestras decisiones. Básicamente, tememos al miedo. Cuando no tenemos influencia sobre ciertas cosas, entramos inmediatamente en el reino del miedo.
We become overly worried about all the possible outcomes. And sometimes we don’t even try doing anything because we fear failure.
Dejar ir del miedo significa aceptar las cosas y hacerlo lo mejor posible cada día.
When you know that you’re trying your best and making a serious effort in every aspect of your life, then there’s nothing you should worry about.
Todo lo que tiene que hacer para suelta of fear is to embrace all the challenges on the journey called life. And there will be plenty of them, but this doesn’t mean you should be afraid of them.
Dejar ir of fear means knowing you’re doing your best and being prepared for the worst. Feeling free is about believing instead of fearing.
When you go through life like a warrior, you don’t fear battles or pain. You see everything as an opportunity to evolve.

Dejarlo todo significa encontrarte a ti mismo.
You can’t stop thinking about too many Y si... – about tu pasado malas relaciones, other people’s opinions, and what will happen next.
Mientras te ahogas en el oscuro abismo de tu mente, deseas en secreto suelta de todo.
Usted quiere suelta de dolor emocional que se ha acumulado en tu mente y en tu cuerpo. Usted espera dejar ir la ira y el espectro tóxico de emociones negativas.
Desearías tener un nueva vida desprovisto de dolor, lucha y arrepentimiento.
Y yo solía desear lo mismo que tú. La mitad de mi vida he vivido en el pasado y he pensado en el futuro sin saberlo.
I didn’t realize that letting go del miedo, la ira, las comparaciones, los apegos adictivos, los deseos consumistas y otras cosas mencionadas anteriormente significa darte espacio y tiempo para encontrar tu verdadero yo.
There are so many things in life that prevent us from unlocking our true potential and that’s why it’s necessary to suelta de ellos.
Cuanto más me concentraba en averiguar qué podía haber hecho de otra manera en el pasado, más confusa y perdida me sentía.
Solía ver el pasado como algo que hay que explicar, así que lo revivía en mi cabeza una y otra vez.
And the future was something I feared, so I thought if I prepared myself for every possible outcome, I’d avoid disappointments. And boy, was I wrong.
Al centrarme en cosas que me agotaban, me privaba deliberadamente de la libertad. Pero, ahora comprendo que la vida es un verdadero milagro y sería una pena que la desperdiciara preocupándome, juzgando o comparando incesantemente.
Ahora entiendo que necesitaba suelta ¡de todo para conseguirlo todo!
