115 B R E A K I N G F R E E F R OM OU R AT TAC HM E N T S MATERIAL ATTACHMENTS How many things in your life are you attached to? Not sure? Take exactly one minute to write down all the things you would dread losing if there were a fire or flood in your home. Take a good look at what these things are because these are the things you are most likely attached to and many of these things may get in the way of making changes in your life. Often the material things are sentimental or mark something special for us or perhaps something we just love that brings us joy. But many of these material things can be like weights around us and hold us back from making changes that we would like to make for fear of losing them or having to give them up. For example, many people dream of starting their own business or having a career they would absolutely love and would totally fulfill them but the initial investment or the pay would require they severely reduce their expenses. This would mean downsizing their mortgage, driving an inexpensive car, and cutting the extras in life out. Because of their attachments to these things, they continue on each day in misery doing something that drains their vitality until the tanks run almost dry.
