Our Past is NOT Equal to Our Future!

So often, we see people making the same mistakes again and again and blaming their past for their results. While there is no doubt that our past actions are the reason we are where we are today, we don't have to be stuck here. Our carefully chosen actions today normally determine our tomorrow.

Problem: Overweight.
Likely reason: Undisciplined eating habits; lack of exercise.
Solution: We know the answer that is most suitable for us. All we have to do is act.

Problem: Lack of sales, financial stress.
Likely reason: Not putting our priorities right.
Solution: Become the best at what we do, become irreplaceable.

Problem: Strained relationships.
Likely reason: Different view points, clash of opinions.
Solution: Look at their viewpoint. Say sorry for the past actions and mean it.

Problem: Whatever it is.
Likely reason: Take time out, sit back, and find out why.
Solution: Work on the reasons and see the difference.

Also, when we look around, by it's very nature, nothing is permanent. Everything changes. While we can't see it, millions of cells die in our body daily and millions take birth. Our way of thinking changes as we grow. The same things that we fought for, or fought over, are irrelevant years later (sometimes days later).

The biggest challenge is recognizing that we are responsible for our actions, and the results thereof. It is also crucial to recognize that what was important at one time, is not an issue anymore and that we don't have to be stuck in the same mind frame to make similar choices specially when we know better (different) now.

Wishing you a great future. You can make a difference.
