Your past is part of your life

Good day guys, how are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. We're 3 days away from Christmas. Merry Christmas and a happy new year in advance. Let's have a quick recap of yesterday's article. Yesterday's article was about the importance of having positive thoughts. I've learned that when we are stressed, and have a negative thought towards someone or something, we may be creating our own adversity and situations in our own lives. When we think positive thoughts, our lives can change for the better. I've experienced this many, many times in my life. You're a better person when your thoughts are positive. The best example I have is about a decade ago. The phone rang, and it was bad news from someone. I got so angry that the next day I was in bed with weakness because all I could think about was the pain the bad news caused. The more I thought about it, the worse the weakness got and I almost ended up in the hospital. Not much happened after that because after a few days, I realized that it wasn't these people calling me with all these bad news that caused all this to happen to me. The summary of everything is that your thoughts define your reality. The earlier you started to think the right thoughts, the better for you. Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted. You’re past is part of your life. It could be your dreams, goals, problems, pains, joys, successes or failures. The point is… your past has shaped you into who you are today. Your past is something that you need to learn from and above all else, it should provide you with a source of motivation to start making choices that enable you to leave your past behind and start the journey towards the future. You cannot be a writer and not have had a life filled with lessons. But the lessons must be learned before they can be written about. Ive been to hell and back so many times, Ive lost count. The interesting thing about that is that every time I go to bad time, I learn something totally new. That life filled with lessons is part of your past. The past is part of our life. It cannot be avoided, changed or eradicated. You cannot change your past. The best you can do is learn from it and either build on it or let it go. People may not want to hear what you have to say because they don't want their past used against them in some way. Sometimes it is out of envy, sometimes out of jealousy and sometimes out of pure hatred. The past cannot be forgotten but what you make of that past is the important thing. Your past should serve as a motivation to make you a better person. We must try to make the best out of our past and not be weighed down by it. It should be the force that pulls us closer to our dreams and aspiration. That's all for now. Have a great day. All images are from Unsplash
