Don't Look Back
I've said it in my books and I've said it in my blogs: "for at least one month, never say "I coulda" or I shoulda."
The past is the past. The decisions you made in the past are over with. Punishing yourself with "shouldas" or "couldas" will suck the happiness right out of you. Looking back on the mistakes you've made is self-flogging. Looking back on any event that changed your live for the worst will eat away at your soul.
You probably think that looking back on the things you did that were positive is a good thing. I say NO! If you need to look back on the good things it could mean something is wrong today.
The right thing is to appreciate your decision when it goes right at that time. The right thing is to pat yourself on the back at the time you accomplish something positive. The right thing is to love yourself for all the good things you are doing today.
Having a smile on your face while remembering the fun you had in the past is a today smile. Acknowledge and appreciate that today smile. I'm not talking out of both sides of my mouth. There is a difference between listening to an old song or seeing an old car and smiling because those were the good old days verses feeling the need to look back at those good times because you're having a not so great time today.
The people, who need to remember the positive past, are the people who see the future as bleak. The people, who look back on the things they did wrong, are the people who are unhappy today and believe they will be unhappy in the future.
As I've always said: "you don't know shit about what the future has to bring." Tomorrow could be the best time of your life. Tomorrow will be the best time of your life if you're happy today, give positive energy out to the universe, love unconditionally even if you don't get what you want and:
Don't Look Back
