Have you ever had someone ruin a great conversation by reminding you of the person that you used to be? This is often a strategy used by those who are attempting to devalue your present accomplishments and discourage you from pursuing greater heights. Those who are not happy about the fact that you are making positive changes in your life will try their best to keep you stuck in the past. People who intentionally bring up behaviors that you no longer identify with are hoping to make you feel as though you are not worthy of where you are headed. I encourage you to recognize that you are not defined by your past mistakes. When you focus on past behaviors, mistakes or disappointments, you literally agree to relinquish your happiness. Focusing on things that you do not have any control over is a waste of energy. Instead, focus on your strengths, the opportunities that lie ahead and how grateful you are for the blessings that are upon you at this very moment! There is no need to keep reading the same dull chapter over and over. It is time to turn the page. Are you ready to take advantage of all that 2016 has in store for you? I am deliberately appreciating the lessons learned from my past, yet remaining focused on my future. Will you join me? Can I count on you to take it easy on yourself and choose to move forward? Letting go of the past allows you to focus your time and energy in the right place. You do not have the power to change your past, but you do have the power to create an amazing future. You deserve peace, happiness and prosperity. I am declaring that 2016 is YOUR YEAR of breakthrough!!! Until next time…..
