Great post @jerrybanfield!
Acting as if you already have what you want in your life allows you to create space for it to come to you and sometimes that involves letting go of something.
It can get a bit difficult allowing yourself to be open to the possibility that you can get what you want in life because we allow the "reality" of the present situation to get in the way. We sometimes forget that believing and trusting for something better helps to shape our reality.
