    About this ebook

    Even after trying several things you probably still find life challenging, most of us do. Nobody really gets an easy run at it, but it really shouldn't be such a struggle. This book gives you the perfect solution by showing you a clear, practical way to accept your life as it is. Then, you can build from the foundations that you already have – that we all have, just waiting to be stirred. 

    What you already have

    Within us all is a hidden strength that can focus our understanding of life in a way that will harness the true power we all hold within us. The problem is we naturally oppose almost everything that seems different or difficult that comes before us; sometimes this caution can be a good thing, but usually, not so. If you look closely, the true enemy is inside your mind; no one escapes this non- existential fear unless they are willing to face their greatest challenge – themselves. 

    What you will learn to do

    •How to be positive and show up in your life

    •How to really listen to the voice of your inner soul

    •To understand true liberation and how it leads you to real happiness

    •How to let go of everything and every belief you don't need

    •How nature's blissful state can work for you with real positivity

    •To understand how the law of creation can overide all others

    •How to develop these powers to reach your full potential

    •How love works with acceptance and can change everything

    •To understand the power of now – the present moment

    •To understand the importance of real relationships 

    •To understand your inner-self completely, what to be and how to become it

    This book takes you on the journey to that pure and simple sublime state that lies deep within, just waiting to be stirred so that it can rise to the surface and envelop your entire being. Once you discover this, your life will be different. The power to be able to accept everything around and within us is like the builder having the foundations of his house already built there for him. From the wonderful platform these pages present, you will be able to achieve so much, but first you need to learn to accept your life as it is. This book will show you how.

      The Power of Acceptance - Mario Noviello

      PREFACE

      Sometimes the most positive act we can take in life is to merely accept things exactly as they are. We must accept everything in life if we are to look beyond our present situation and get a deeper insight into all that happens and doesn’t happen. By offering resistance, we make a bad situation much worse; that is why so many people are stuck in the 'why me' scenario. Every event in our lives is an opportunity for us to grow stronger and become more knowledgeable of who we really are, but unless we are willing to let go and allow life to flow, we will never see the bigger picture. As a result, we suffer deeply; we should be evolving and not dissolving. Every single one of us must go through a kind of clearance process and be open to all that it offers if we are to find out who we truly are. This is a positively mindful act that involves us being really truthful with ourselves; we will have to be honest with our emotions, our thoughts and our actions. It requires us to embrace the good the bad and the ugly in order to go beyond the constant repeated cycle of pain and pleasure that this world throws at us.

      Exercising the power of acceptance is a noble act to pursue, it is easy to speak of, harder to see through. The starting point is simply to accept, and not fight the daily trail of perceived injustice. Our lives are crammed full of situations that we contrive and all of us by nature find ourselves in fighting mode every day. But it is the fool that fights it. The wise have always known that two wrongs don’t make a right. If you look closely, the true enemy is in your mind; no one escapes this non- existential fear unless they are willing to face their greatest challenge – themselves.  We have become such a problematics species, we are a race of complainers who most of the time don’t know what they are complaining about! Yes, things could be much better in this world, but complaining about them does nothing for anyone. If we are really going to make this world a better place to live in we must take care of our own minds ... the first step towards ensuring a better life – not just for us individually but for everyone. If we don’t bring back that powerful mother energy of acceptance and loosen the grip we have applied to our lives for so long, we will become even more out of touch than we are today. We will continue to create those contrived situations in our own minds on a daily basis, and this will cause our lives to become harder and more rigid. To succeed, we must first know and then show, not just for ourselves but for the good of the world. This is not an act of simply putting other people first, nor is it about self-success and promotion; more it is about accepting all the people in this world. We don't need more individually successful people in this world, we just need more loving and kinder ones that are open to the power of acceptance.

      The mind will fight you every step of the way on its journey towards enlightenment because the light is often too bright for it to bare. Have no concern about this, the more you embrace, accept and surrender to this resistance, the more the light will find a way to shine through you like shafts of sunlight always find their way between the nearly closed blinds. This will create an almighty force that I call the power of acceptance. When we stop offering resistance towards what is happening now, we discover that life doesn’t throw situations, circumstances or challenges at us, rather all along it was the metaphorical mirror effect we’d been experiencing – our own resistance and inner conflict was reflecting back to us. In simple terms, life really does reflect back to us what we think it does, and we can influence it.

      This book will take you through a clearance process and then give you a better understanding of who in truth you really are beyond that of which you currently perceive. Most importantly, I hope it can give you freedom from your own negative mindset that has incarcerated you from true inner peace and joy.  As we truly accept the moment by moment processes of our lives, we will start to turn a very big corner; instead of life seeming to work against you it will be working so powerfully for you and everyone concerned around you. This power is so strong that when we merely accept it we are not alone. We may have lost our way but we are never alone – you are as one with God/love/The Universe. There are so many things we need to accept to bring the true meaning, reason and purpose back into our own lives. And I give you a warning; there is so much said about acceptance these days that it is common to hear in our modern language phrases that describe it in a variety of ways.  But what I am talking about is letting go so deeply, that what is left bears a profoundly deeper insight of clarity and wisdom that surpasses anything else the world can give you. So, let’s start this process; loosen the grip and let go. Then ... see what happens.

      You are the embodiment of love, peace and self-fullifillment. Only you can experience this truth by embracing the act of self-acceptance of who you truly are.

      BEFORE I EMBARKED ON writing THE POWER OF ACCEPTANCE, I spent a week decluttering my home. I felt it was time to be out with the old and in with the new, so I began by clearing out my loft, then, room by room I meticulously and painfully cast aside things from my past that I had held onto in case one day I might find they mean something important to me. After turning over every corner of my home I felt a sense of inner peace from allowing myself to merely let go of objects that obviously I wasn’t going to use. Having been knee high with material stuff got me thinking about all the emotions I had attached to these articles just in case at some point in the future I was to find I needed them for enhancement or protection of some kind . . . or more commonly, as symbols of status.

      As I reflected, I realised we do hold onto things that actually we don’t need. These objects I didn’t know I even possessed I likened to emotions of regret, hurt, guilt, and resentment from a time way back. When we are unaware of these things cluttering the space in our head like the objects in our loft, we leave no room to form new perspectives, ideas and resolutions in our lives; life becomes problematic towards finding a resolution to the issues that emotional attachment presents. if we are not willing to let go of the past we cannot live in this present moment.

      The thought of change is the emotion we hold on to most desperately. We fear change, and we are stifled by what it is; holding onto our past emotions is the biggest downfall and keeps us in stuck in the past.  Just because you get in the car and go somewhere, don’t think you’re necessarily going anywhere! One thing we must always remember is you must always take yourself with you wherever you go. We fall into patterns of negative behaviour because of thoughts we unconsciously form from our past. If the past was never forgiven at the time it was experienced, it will have to be replayed time and time again until we are able to face it. Hurt during childhood is especially poignant throughout adulthood. The scenarios are endless: an insensitive man came from a lack of affection, a mistrusting woman was taught mistrust, the overprotective partner experienced fear from another. Every painful situation from our past does and will affect our present if we are unable to let go of it and lay it to rest.

      We are all products of our environment, upbringing, culture, and the doctrines we have been subjected to, but having said that it doesn’t mean we are forced to hang on to them in such a way that causes us unhappiness. The world you have been given is not the only world you can live in. Most people are not looking for solutions to their unhappiness; more so they seek a deep-set satisfaction from aligning to victim identity.

      Let me ask you a thought-provoking two-part question:

      Is it possible for you, right now, to accept as happiness what you have, or to change what you can’t accept that causes you to be unhappy?

      If neither one you can answer, it can be said you have illuminated yourself to the problem. But maybe not the cause of the problem. There is an immediate solution to what that might be.  I’m afraid you may not like to hear it, but it is you. Most likely this is not by any intentional practice, but by an unconscious behaviour that you don’t even realise is part of your complex and layered personality.

      Miracles happen when unconscious thoughts and feelings are brought out of the dark and are then transformed by the light. A focus of acceptance is necessary. We are all sleep walking in a physical state, and just because this is the norm it doesn’t mean it’s not insane! We are a generation that find it difficult to start anything because we feel we need permission to change and evolve to some deeper level. We all know we were born to do great things; deep down everyone knows that. But in order for us to experience something new the old must go. So being able to give up this neurosis of the mind means we shall not live in the past anymore.

      'If you want to become full, let yourself be empty' – Lao Tzu

      In Buddhism, they talk about the empty rice bowl; if your rice bowl is already too full, then more can’t be put into it, but if your rice bowl is not full you can receive. Your rice bowl is your mind – when cluttered with ugly things like negative emotions formed from the past, there will be no room to create positivity for the future to grow through from where you are right now.

      You have a voice that can’t be heard. You are too preoccupied, too consumed with what’s happening around you rather than focusing on what’s happening inside of you. It is your feelings that can create and bring a new life force into your world, so, at least, honour them!

      For us to reach our maximum human potential, we must realign with the wisdom that is the inner voice of our own soul. This voice knows you and wants to assist in all that you want to become. You are connected to something greater than you, but which is also part of you; the reason we can never hear ourselves
