(13) Surrender Attachment to the Outcome

An objective observer surrenders the need to control outcomes. The non-attached observer does not let go of the desire for the outcome, but the need to have it a specific way and/or by a pre-determined time. This attitude brings the observer in alignment with the co-creative process, attracting the desired outcome quickly.

When you give up attachment to an outcome, you are able to recognize when you are striving to accomplish goals instead of living in the present moment. You are also able to recognize when something is not working. In both instances you need to make choices about what to do next. The observer who does not cling to outcomes will be able to take the appropriate action to change course or change a strategy.

When all you have tried is not working, let go of controlling the outcome and invite a power greater than yourself to enter the situation. As you put aside your controlling ego, you attract the answer to your question or allow the outcome to come to you. Do your best to achieve results and allow the Creative Principle to do the rest.
