Let Go Of Control: The Art Of Surrender

The concept of surrender is often confused with weakness because of the cultural emphasis on independence and control that many of us have been raised in. Our society values self-sufficiency and sees asking for help as a sign of failure. This belief system leads us to believe that surrendering is giving up, that it means we are unable to handle the situation on our own and therefore, must rely on others. However, this perspective overlooks the power and strength that comes with surrendering.
