Dating Issues? Here´s What You Need to Know and Do

Not everyone falls in love at first sight. Most of us find ourselves dating during at least one point in our lives, and often more than that.

It´s normal to feel apprehensive before a date, but butterflies in your stomach and sweaty palms aside, your attitude and beliefs about the date could actually form its outcome.

The more you hold on to fears, regrets or assumptions (such as the date will be lousy or you´re sure the person isn´t right for you anyway), the more those things will happen. If you meet your date with an armful of emotional baggage from past relationships, your date will probably start carrying some of it for you, and your greatest fears will come true: you won´t have found your prince, or princess, charming.

"The events and feelings in your last relationship do not determine those in your next one unless you hold on and believe they will," says Hale Dwoskin, CEO and director of training at Sedona Training Associates.

If you have a date planned, and you´re worrying about it, analyzing it and coming up with multiple reasons why it´s not right for you, your self-doubt and fears may be sabotaging your dates.

In contrast, if you keep an open mind and release past emotional baggage, such as your fears of being rejected or betrayed, you will stop the cycle. You won´t  attract that into your life.

"Let go of wanting to change what was and then hold in your mind what you would like to have," Dwoskin says. "Let go of thoughts and feelings that say you cannot or should not have it. Review your past relationships and figure out what worked best, then allow yourself to be open to more of that. Then simply get back out there and keep letting go."

You can find out everything you need to know about letting go by learning to use The Sedona Method . This tool is used by hundreds of thousands of people to master their emotions, thereby mastering their actions, their thoughts, and their life. You can master yours too.

Set your sights high. Imagine the date you´d love to have, and the person you´d love to have it with. When you´re open to releasing, you´ll be amazed at what, and who, is attracted into your life.
