Thanks for your post, it contains some very strong advice/wisdom.

To often we are judged by our past actions, which restricts our ability to move in new directions.

Great post! Success is like driving window. It’s good to look in the rear view mirror now and then but if you focus on it then you are destined to crash.

Great article!! (I know it’s a standard greeting heh, but it’s true) I’ve been struggling with this a lot lately. Another great technique is to go back and (briefly) relive all the emotions associated with that time period, and then let them go, so that we can be finally done with it, and the whole story we have created around it.

Great post. I strongly believe that past is past and today has the best to offer. Always think positive and learn how to forgive.

Hi to you Sherri.

That’s a valid point there about forgiving yourself. Looking back on a certain example or two, I don’t really forgive myself, and it doesn’t really help to do that. It doesn’t make much sense to have a certain experience, or two, affect your current mental standing now, even if it was a mistake costing years of work.

Good message here.

Great thoughts! I 100% agree we are not defined by our past. I’ve learned to focus on what I’ve learned from my past and use it for good in the present and future.

And no point getting too hung up on present stuff either cos who knows who you will be in the future.
