As we grow and develop throughout life we collect things, and carry them with us, sort of like in a backpack. Sometimes we know what we are collecting and sometimes we collect things that we are unaware of, we collect things that others can see that we cannot and we collect things that other people slip into our backpacks without us knowing.
So right now you are carrying around a backpack full of beliefs, values, habits and ideas.
When was the last time you cleaned your backpack out?
If life is weighing you down, if you are stressed out, if you just cant seem to get ahead! It may just be time to lighten the load, throw away some of those useless items that having being weighing you down for years, hang on to the ones that are most useful and ,maybe look for some new items to carry in your backpack that make you feel refreshed and reenergized.
Is there stuff in your back pack that is festering and putrid??? Are you carrying someone else's?????? And when you are struggling, do you have someone to share the load with, or someone who will carry yours when you are weak or drained?
On the other side, do you put your hand up to carry someone else's load, to give someone a hand when it seems too tough??? Can you help your colleagues, friends and family sort their backpacks out.
Next time you are walking down the street, check the amount of people huddled over, looking at the ground, struggling with the backpack of life.
Make sure you clean yours out so you can walk into the future with your head held high and with all the tools to enjoy the journey
