What does it mean to go with the flow? Surely, like all other sayings, the flow holds a variety of meanings. In regards to your life, however, the flow is the direction in which events unfold and manifest along your path. So what does it mean to "go" with this flow? More importantly, how can one "go" with it? To answer this I ask: do you ever find a feeling within the pit of your stomach urging you to steer clear of the direction you're headed? Do you ever feel an urge to get angry because things did not go your way, especially with someone you are in a relationship with? If so you know what it feels like to not go with the flow.

To go with the flow, especially in a relationship, you must pay close attention to your emotions and your thoughts. If you find yourself getting upset with the unexpected stop and ask yourself: Will getting upset with this person or situation truly help me, anyone else or the situation get any better?
