If you live regretting what happened in the past, you will never be able to live your dreams. Your past is yesterday and your future is tomorrow. In the present, learn the lessons life has taught you and make improvements to achieve a new reality. None of us can change our past, but we can reshape our future.
Reflecting on regretful situations will only cause you to focus on negative thoughts while losing your peace of mind. I’ve been there, and believe me when I say you don’t want to go there. Learn to forgive yourself for the past.
Forgive yourself for things you never completed or said that’s too late to change. Don’t let it define who you are as a person. It’s never too late to make a change. Let go of what doesn’t serve your interest.
When given new opportunities, don’t be afraid to take a chance. Whether it’s starting a new business, changing careers, or going to school in order to learn new skills. Know who you are and figure out what you want out of life.
The forces within, sometimes whisper that you’re not capable of committing to anything or completing a task. Believe you can change your circumstances in spite of where you are right now. Don’t allow shoulda coulda woulda to be your mantra.
Take a chance, live a life worth living.One day you might be surprised how your realty will change. Stop living with regret knowing you can’t change the past. However you can try to reshape your future. Make every day count towards a more productive tomorrow. Don’t settle for less, find your own path. In the end, we only regret the chances we didn’t take.
