#10000HappyDays #Day2: Forgiving the Past

There comes a time that you have to start forgiving your past self.  A lot of people get stuck in the past.  We often blame the past for our present misfortunes.  Usually, we wish to have a time machine and fantasize about changing that certain incident in the past.   When we fight with people, chances are, we bring up the past.  To really move on towards a better self, one has to forgive and as much as possible forget the past.  Learn from the past and put it in your heart and mind. Its lessons are important and not the traumatic incident. 

#stress - The Past is one of the biggest stressors in life.  The Past contains our regrets, failures, bloopers, embarrassing moments, and moments of indecision. Thinking too much about the past makes it more difficult to move on.  One has to learn how to channel this energy and focus towards the future. It is a big challenge; but, by learning selective amnesia, you will be more confident in facing the present and the future.

#force - Today, I forced myself to forget the past and do everything to not bring up the past.  I make sure I learned my lesson from these past events and make sure that if the situation comes up again, I will react differently.

My present situation also is a bit tough as I am in the crossroads when it comes to my career. I had my past failures and success and I make sure that I will not live in the past. The landscape has evolved and it is continuing to change, it is important for us to adapt and even anticipate the change in order to succeed. I will be taking a lot of risks in the coming days and I am hoping that my gut feel is right.
