There comes a time in people’s lives when they have to decide whether to keep dwelling in the past or focus on their future.
No matter how painful your past, you eventually have to start a new journey and make peace with the bad experiences you’ve been through.
You can’t focus on the future if you’re still obsessed with your past.
You can’t change the past, so why waste your time worrying about it?
The only thing you can do is ensure the past doesn’t repeat itself.
Invest your time and energy in your future success.
Leave the past behind you, where it belongs. Life is much more pleasant when you focus on what the future has in store for you.
Everyone was born with a purpose, and your destiny lies in the future.
Your future will always be greater than your past, so rather keep your mind on what lies ahead.
My friend, it is time to decide where your time and energy will be spent. Will it go towards worrying about the past, or looking forward to the future? Stop delaying your success by focusing on the things you cannot change.
