The Letting Go Paradox: Make Them Want You
For information on 1-on-1 coaching: www.andrewvanhoff.com/coaching
In this video we talk about attachment, attraction, and letting go. So often in life we can find ourselves chasing and pursuing things we believe will make our lives better. In doing this, we often disempower ourselves and end up pushing those very things we desire further away from us. In this video we discuss how this process works, and what we can do to find more freedom and wholeness in ourselves, and allow that in turn to radiate out into the world so we attract instead of repel.

In this video we cover identity, story, the maps we create and the way they shape our perception! To change our lives we have to change our stories - the way we see ourselves literally shapes the way we see the world. Our stories and maps are always old, and this is very often useful! They give us a framework of purpose, belonging and meaning. At the same time, our stories and maps often provid...

The #1 Mistake That Ruins Letting Go

    It happened with my mother... She was anxious and attached to a life where her son was present and making her feel safe and loved.. I told her one day, while she was in tears, "You have lived your life and created and nurtured a beautiful family, allow me to live my life and create my family". At first she was scared, that her life would be worse without her son... It's been a year and now she's even more excited when i visit and tells me all about the life she now lives (she went back to reading more, wants to start writing). She has recovered her hobbies and passions and that's what you all need to understand, and so do I. Once we let go of what fills our heart, the hole can be filled with new opportunities, new people, new activities, new philosophies of life that can inspire us to become something much different and much greater. We start living the life we want to live, not the life that others want for us. There is nothing more inspiring than knowing that a heartbreak or a loss can be a blessing for allowing us the opportunity to grow and become what our soul wishes we become.

    Funny how tables can turn. My old coworker--let's call her Sarah--apparently found me annoying. She's a bartender at my old catering job, and whenever I approached her or a fellow bartender, I would tell the same joke, "I'll have one large beer to help me get over my ex-girlfriend." One time, she said to me as I approached, "John, I don't want to hear it." A week or so later, I was approaching her coworker, and from the distance, Sarah said "John" in a stern voice. So yes, I was annoyed and since then, I didn't really interact with her. Went from outgoing to quiet. Sometimes she'd say hi to me when we saw each other, and I would emotionlessly say hey. I think a few times she would ask me to do this favor/task and I would just nod my head. Once or twice she thanked me and I didn't respond. I left the job, went to work in this cafe in the same building, but came back for this one particular service. The catering crew were REALLY desperate and reached out to me. In the ballroom, I made eye contact with Sara, who was only a few feet or so from me. What's funny is she _approached_ me; she could've just acknowledged me and went on with whatever. I know I would've. She asked me how I was (to my slight surprise), said she heard I switched to the cafe downstairs, asked me if I liked the job. Curious to see how she'd react (considering her past signs of not liking me), I told her I didn't plan on coming back to catering, and yeah, she did seem a bit surprised: "You're not coming back?" I remember saying "I don't think so" in a slightly disgusted tone of voice. But that wasn't it. That month, at a bar, Sara put her hand on my arm to get my attention and gave a slight wave. I just gave a slight smile and brief, still wave and went forward to catch up with friends (it was crowded). So it's funny...she approached me when I temporarily came back and reached out to me at the bar.

    Dating over the past few months taught me that I should be alone and try to make myself happy. I was lonely and miserable coping with friends, sports, and video games before the 5 year relationship and I am doing the same shit after it ended. New activities are just that, another thing to fill the day with but coming home to an empty bed and a phone devoid of any interaction beyond friends or family is fucking depressing. Maybe instead of being generous and insecure I will come out self absorbed and secure after I am "Healed."

    I love this advice. Unfortunately some people won’t get there in a matter of a few weeks, but if people give themselves grace, and time to reflect, eventually they can get to this point. People are dealing with so many different insecurities, traumas and dysfunctional relationship dynamics that makes it difficult for them to arrive at this point. Great video! Thanks for putting out this perspective out there. More authenticity and less manipulation.

      Perhaps I didn't make it clear enough in the video, but I certainly don't advocate for being intentionally manipulative. I absolutely agree with you that good and open communication is way better than that. The key in my opinion is understanding where we're ALREADY being manipulative and trying to get our needs met by people pleasing, conflict avoiding, putting people on pedestals and chasing our own projections to hide from our inner insecurities and fears - all of which lead to us forgetting that, as you said, we're dealing with a real human being. The takeaway wasn't intended to be "just stonewall and you'll be attractive" but more "love yourself and find your own wholeness and that will make you not only more 'attractive' but more authentic and open and REAL"

    The cold truth is that as much as we can “stay true to ourselves” if you know anything about female nature after giving her space you mentioned she was happy. See the problem is we think the world revolves around our selves. And you can use this to your advantage because a women’s world IS her emotions. Relationships are containers of servant hood and service. Gathering data and practice for a marriage and a marriage is a business decision . In business as a sole proprietor you have to make decisions that best serves the vision of your company. Often we as men have no standard or intention on the energy we let into our lives from the opposite sex and quite frankly they don’t give a shit about our feelings, and having anxiety is a red flag. This isn’t the 90s or early 2000s people are hypersensitive & “I can give myself everything thing I need” as a narrative seriously couldn’t be further from the truth. If we could meet all of our own needs we wouldn’t be here. There would be no need for humans. We fundamentally need eachother and need community. We all just want to play victim and isolate into our Internet world. So the real challenge is having the discernment and accountability to educate yourself on female nature and how to get the respect you’re looking for. Essentially how to integrate through mind body and soul - new behavior - that actually works and gives you a life and the options in the sexual market place that you desire. We are in a broken world and we need to humble ourselves to the truth around us. Get out of our victim mindsets and integrate the hate we have for ourselves and people with a reservoir of grace that is honest about our needs and then articulates them to our potential mates. “Hey, I really need your assurance on this. I’m hoping with more time and more re assurance- I’m going to build confidence in that area. “ “ hey I had a long day. Can you hold me?” Lol yes it sounds nuts but I feel like sometimes it’s that simple. We have these layers of shame on top of layers of anger and self oppression. We must integrate those things with a love like the one god gives us in full grace and allow ourselves to see ourselves as we are. Self condemnation only creates oppression. Good luck to all. Thanks for this channel and to allow me to vent. Blessings

  • @manoil1
    @manoil1 3 дні тому

    Yeah, I understand your point. You represent it so well in many videos about letting go and be self-sufficient but you also need to put a line between that idea and needing love and to share your life with people. We need companionships, we need some sense of security and stability. I am not saying this in a way to oppose your idea but to frame it in a way that do not condamn the fact that people have needs, psychological needs, not just physical. There is a growing tendency of people choosing to be alone and focusing only on themselves because relationships no longer fulfill their needs like ever. Even some animals species choose one partner and mate for life and when a tragedy happens, they sometimes cannot go on. Again, this is just an example but we do need other people, love to give and love to receive, but yeah, getting rid of those false images we create for the other person need to go away.

    • @andrewvanhoff
      @andrewvanhoff 3 дні тому

      Absolutely! It's not to say that you should completely detach from life, but more to say that you should be more aware and present in life. It's not that you have to avoid people and be perfect in order to finally find happiness, but rather you have to embrace the inherent imperfection and love yourself and other people anyway. And I think only by understanding that we're okay alone are we able to fully bring our whole selves into a relationship and build a partnership. Many of my videos follow my own arc of understanding, which was about moving away from people pleasing and chasing others as a source of validation. But you can definitely take it too far, and I've even noticed in myself from time to time situations where I've been more avoidant, perhaps as the other side of that same coin. There is a balance in these things. It's not that you have to be alone, or you're always using other people to compensate, but rather that you have to be your own person. You have to love yourself, not only your partner. Above all, it's an ongoing journey. I've heard it said that we're all masterpieces and also works in progress. So it's not to say you "have to live this specific way in order to be happy" but more to bring the awareness of these subtle underlying belief systems that many of us are slaves to. And to find our own inner worth so that we can more thoroughly embrace life, not withdraw from it.

    If this video resonated with you I recommend the book “Attached” it’s such a great read on different attachment styles.

    • @andrewvanhoff
      @andrewvanhoff 3 дні тому

      I've read through that book! I think that attachment styles are a fascinating thing to learn about. At the same time I think that some of the approaches books can take are a little surface-level, in that they help us address the symptoms that may present themselves on a daily basis but they often stop short of finding that deeper inner wholeness to be secure. Some books give specific examples of things you can do to help your relationship if you're avoidant, for example, but some don't necessarily go deeply into how to work on NOT being an avoidant anymore. Overall though, great book and fascinating topic to dive into. I think the awareness of your attachment style, when paired with other forms of inner work (letting go, inner child healing, etc) really does provide a great framework for understanding a lot of your own behavior and patterns.
