How often do you “look back?” All of us have periods in our lives that did not turn out the way we expected. Whether it is because you put up with a bad relationship too long, or you didn’t finish school, or you “wasted too much time” at a job that you thought was going to turn into a better experience…and it never happened…you learned lessons.
Whether you believe it or not, you have continued to move forward from all of the experiences you have had. Good, bad or indifferent, your experiences have made you evolve into what you have become today. If your progress can be measured by the fact that you have had hard experiences, but those experiences have taught you never to go down those roads again, that IS progress.
Never underestimate the power of experience, and never think that you cannot go back to your original goals. As long as you wake up, you can get up. Each day has the potential for you to move forward, and become better at what you choose to improve. How far have you come? More than you give yourself credit for… “Now let’s get going.” xo Sally
