To Succeed Never Let Your Past Dictate Your Future
Many people are bogged down with their past. Actually, too many people let themselves get bogged down with their past. It is almost as if they have dug a pit so deep that they cannot climb out of no matter how hard they say they try.
Thus, they feel hopeless and blame their current woes and situation on the past and the pit gets deeper and deeper. You get what I mean.
Success, any real success, is based on moving beyond the past. The past becomes an anchor to the way things were and the way things will be until you decide to break the chains that binds you to that anchor.
It is that simple.
Break those binds and move forward. You can look back. Look back only to ensure that you are not slipping back to the way things were but to ensure you are moving into the future. The future you want. The future you make.
Thank you,
