Don't dwell in the past

Do you think about all the things you “should have” done differently? Thinking about the past won’t fix your problems.

Why We Dwell On The Past

Guilt, shame, and anger are just a few of the feelings that can keep you stuck in the past. You might think…

“If I stay miserable long enough, I’ll eventually be able to forgive myself!”

But this won’t work.

Problems With Dwelling On The Past

1. You miss out on the present.

2. You can’t prepare for the future.

How To Not Dwell On The Past

Shift Your Thinking

1. Give yourself something else to think about. Like watching a OnePercentBetter video instead.

2. Establish goals for the future. It’s impossible to dwell on the past if you’re planning for the future.
