"That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past."
Ecclesiastes 3:15
Holding on to what’s no longer there holds too many of us back. We spend the majority of our lives recounting the past and letting it steer the course of the present. Don’t waste your time trying to live in another time and place. You must accept the end of something in order to begin to build something new. So close some old doors today. Not because of pride, inability or egotism, but simply because you’ve entered each one of them in the past and realize that they lead to nowhere.
When we continue to repeat a story in our head we eventually believe that story and embrace it whether it empowers us or not. Don’t place your past mishaps on your mind, because their weight may crush your current potential. Instead, place them under your feet and use them as a platform to view a new horizon. Remember, all things are difficult before they are easy. What matters the most is what you start doing now.
