As I sit here considering the start of a new year, I am recalling the number of times that I have been asked “what would you change in your life?” or basically “What would you do with a ‘do over?’”
What I usually reply is “Does it really matter?”
Seriously, does it matter? In reality It doesn’t matter because you don’t usually get one!
And lamenting over what you would like to change in your past keeps you stuck there.
What will you do from here forward? THAT’s what matters!
Life doesn’t usually give you do-overs … what you get is another day to do something different!
Something amazing!
Something that matters!
I call that a “Do Forward” because it keeps your life moving forward rather than leaving you stuck in your past.
So, stop trying to rework your past, give up trying to come up with some combination of changes that you think would have made things work out the way you wanted them to work out if they’d worked out the way you hoped they’d work out!!
It didn’t happen that way, instead it happened the way it did.
It’s time to quit focusing on your past and focus on the present.
Focus on the NOW.
LIVE YOUR LIFE NOW!!
Do Forward!
