F.R.B.

7/22/2024

 
Picture

If there's anyone, or any thing that had hurt you in the past, for whatever reason or circumstance, you need to apply the F.R.B. PRINCIPLE.

It's not the DEI/JEDI/DEIJ/DEIBJ or anything like that.

This is: FORGIVE, RELEASE, AND BLESS.

You are really creating the conditions for things that have harmed/hurt you to no longer have that power in your life to do so.

You are creating another future that is full of grace for others and for yourself.

Then you are totally free from the past and those negative feelings that came from that past.

Freedom is a choice. 

Freedom from the past is a choice.

One of my past work colleagues had a very traumatic past as an indigenous person. But no matter, how dark her past was, she was willing to rise up and choose to believe that she can overcome and accomplish her purposes in her life.

On the reverse, a family member had been griping over a hurtful comment from another relative that took place decades ago. She is telling the incident as if that happened yesterday! Literally, she hasn't moved on from that episode. There is nobody to blame for this misery, but her.

I just saw a post in LinkedIn about a woman who met somebody from her past employment, who bullied her as a young staff, and that person didn't even know that they've worked together before. She was still bitter about it. Can't blame her.

She can advocate for better employment and working conditions and fight for respectful workplace culture in the future. But she can't do anything about that but learn the lesson and move on. She can choose to release herself from it. 

It doesn't matter what happened to you, it's what you do about what happened to you.

If you're going to ask me, the F.R.B doesn't mention the word, 'forget.'

Forget is part of the release and giving blessing. When you do that, the memory is not negative but positive. You will no longer linger on the offense.

If you want to be an effective leader, a joyful person, and an individual with integrity, you can't wallow in the soup of misery by taking on a past baggage that you don't have to. 

This is a personal, voluntary, and internal choice you can make independent of the other actors' actions after the incident. 

You can see now that the benefits of this is for you to take and enjoy.

Try the F.R.B.

It's abundantly free.
