17. Past focused vs. Future focused

On this episode let's talk about past focused vs. future focused. This allows us to focus on our goals and not get stuck in our pasts. Because most of us have pasts that are full of pain and negative events. We feel we’ve had many screwups or have been through difficult experiences. When we define ourselves and our future capacity by these past attempts, we become discouraged and full of regret. If we don’t know the direction we are going, this is because we are focused on the past. We’re being defined by who we used to be without taking control of who we want to be. Let's look at our past as if it were perfect. Everything happened for a reason, and there were no mistakes—only lessons and preparation. There’s no reason to argue with the past or wish it were different It’s a waste of emotional energy. Instead, let's take that energy and focus on our future—something we CAN affect. The truth is, we can’t go back. The past is done. The good news is that we have entire future ahead of us. f we can figure out and start doing what we want without being held back by negative beliefs or feelings, we can find our way to where we are meant to be, where we are needed the most in the world and where the most happiness lies. When we follow our hearts and our values, our lives become more true and effortless. Our purpose becomes clear, and the way we are meant to follow gets crystal clear.
