“Remember,
you can’t reach
what’s in front of you
until you let go
of what’s behind you”
Why is it so hard
for us to let go of the past?
Memories,
whether good or bad,
are constantly ‘popping’ up in our minds.
We hear a particular song
or smell an old favourite perfume,
and instantly
we see pictures in our mind’s eye,
whether good or bad,
‘they’ are there.
And sometimes,
we are just too frightened of the ‘unknown’,
and the future can be
the ‘unknown’.
However,
when we start
to take Control
of our Lives,
we are starting
to Control
our Futures too.
Whilst we cannot change the ‘past’,
we CAN Learn from ‘it’,
and like any lesson,
once learnt,
we let go of that subject
and move on to the
Future.
Physically,
if we tried to hold onto something behind us,
it could drag us backwards
and/or we’d never move,
which is terribly bad for us physically.
Mentally
—
it is just the same!
In order to make room
for New,
Positive and
Happy memories,
we need to let go
and stop thinking about
the old, negative and sad ones.
Focus your attention
on Today and Tomorrow
and Plan for the Future,
and you’ll soon find
that you have let go of the past,
and that you are
too busy
thinking about something Positive.
Gain Control of your Life,
Today and Tomorrow.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
