The Theory That Changed My Life By Mel Robbins
I found this on Facebook last year! “Let Them Theory” is about letting others do what they want, as it frees you up to do what you want! Never again will you get frustrated when others don’t meet your expectations, you learn to leave them to it and do your own thing.
In all honesty, I’ve been doing this for a while now, as there have been many times I wanted to go somewhere and no one else wanted to join me, so I went on my own and had fun! Forcing someone to go where they don’t want to be, will only cause you not to have fun anyway, so why bother?
I have loosened up so much about going out on my own, especially this past year, that I have no problems with it anymore. I go to many places on my own, as everyone I know works during the day, and have gotten used to it. I can stop and talk to people, check out something, or go as slow as I want! I’ve even gone to City events on my own! It has been freeing for me.
I have no fear when I am outside, I absorb my surroundings, and the people within it, and live in the moment and what it is showing me. I am looking forward to learning more about this “let them theory” and seeing how it will help me in my own life when the book gets released here in Canada next week.
Have a look and see if this could help you too!!
I shared the “Let Them Theory” on social media, and it went CRAZY VIRAL. 15 million views, 11,000 comments. Today, it’s your turn to learn this mindset trick.
I’ve been using this technique for a while, so I know firsthand how powerful it is.
The “Let Them Theory” is so simple, you’re going to get it immediately. And I have some great stories and examples to share with you, because there are three very different ways you can use it.
I can bottom line this in one sentence:
When you “Let Them” do whatever it is that they want to do, it creates more control and emotional peace for you and a better relationship with the people in your life.
