So many women hope to find their soul mate, the man of their dreams, Mr. Right, whatever you want to call him. Why do some women seem to have all the luck while the rest of the women of the world get stuck single or in a mediocre relationship? Is it really fate? Does it take seeing a psychic or some other mystical specialist? Absolutely not.
If fate doesn't determine whether or not you find your soul mate, who does? You do. Yes, finding your soul mate is really up to you. But, often you undermine your own heartfelt desires by your own unconscious actions. Below are three examples of how you might be keeping yourself from finding your soul mate.
Walk away from Mr. Wrong.
Are you in a relationship that is going nowhere? Often women do this because they'd rather be coupled up with someone, anyone, than be single. Do you realize that staying coupled up is greatly lessening your chances of finding true love? Most of the guys you'd want to end up with have enough respect to avoid approaching a woman already in a relationship. Basically, each day you stay with your boyfriend, you risk Mr. Right walking past you.
It's time to toughen up, let go of your security boyfriend and have the courage to be single until the right one comes along. It may happen tomorrow, it may happen next year, but it rarely happen when you are committed to someone else.
Reach for your dreams.
Perhaps you are holding off on buying your first home, traveling to exotic parts of the world, or taking up swing dancing until you find your true love. Although most dreams are more fun pursuing with your soul mate, it is better to be enjoying life and developing yourself as a person than living in a holding pattern until Mr. Right shows up.
Stopping and waiting will only make you depressed or a less desirable prospect. Moving forward with your personal dreams will better you as a person and make you a more attractive partner when you soul mate does enter the scene.
Find out what you really need.
So you know what you want in a soul mate? Sure you do. But do you know what you need? Most of us have wanted something badly, only to be disappointed when we finally get it. Why is this? We confuse our wants with their underlying needs. It's the same with a relationship. You may want him to be rich. Why? So you can be financially secure? Well, your rich "soul mate" may end up being horrible with his money.
You got what you wanted, but was it what you needed? Take time to figure out why you want what you do in a soul mate. Address your underlying needs you discover, and you'll find yourself snuggling up to Mr. Right next time.
In conclusion, finding your soul mate has little to do with fate. It means continually finding ways to grow and understand yourself. Start now by letting go, pursuing your dreams, and discovering what you need. You'll be amazed at the difference it will make in your life.
