Try it out! How did you feel just now reading it? Write a list of all your
fears and negative “What ifs” and then turn it around.
Chapter 39: Let go of the past
“We must be willing to let go of the life we’ve planned,
so as to have the life that
is waiting for us.”
Joseph Campbell
“When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
When I let go of what I have, I receive what I need.”
Tao Te Ching
Every moment you spend in your past is a moment you steal from your present
and future. Stop reliving your drama– Don’t hang onto it.
LET GO OF IT!
Only
if you have the courage to let go of the old, can you be open to new things
entering your life. Don’t waste your time thinking of things that could or should
have happened or that didn’t work out as you wanted in the past. It doesn’t make
sense! You can’t change it! Remember
to focus on what you want, not what
you don’t want.
If you focus on situations that didn’t work out in the past, you
might attract more of these situations.
Learn from your past experiences and
move on.
That’s all you have to do from now on. Easy, isn’t it? Concentrate on
what you want to do well in the future and not what went wrong in the past. You
need to let go of the past so that you are free and new things can come into your
life! Let go of old baggage, finish unfinished business, and get closure with
people. Deepak Chopra is right when he says
“I use memories, but I will not
allow memories to use me.”
Complete the past so that you can be free to enjoy
the present.
From now on, adopt the mindset that you will always finish your business. Don’t
leave anything incomplete in your relationships, work, and all other areas. Keep
moving forward.
