It's Time to Let Go of What Could Have Been

from Fiercely Human

Today, I'm exploring a topic that often comes up in my coaching programs. As they start to put down the baggage that has held them back and start to accelerate the momentum in their life, there comes a point when they start to ponder what could have been (had they made more empowered choices in their past). They may even start to fear that they will never fulfill their ultimate potential because they spent so much time seemingly idle; there's no way to catch up. There are actually really important reasons we need to grieve and let go of "what could have been" so we can create powerfully in the present. I know I have had to grieve what I call "my ghost ship." So, today, we are going to talk about: ● The common self-sabotaging "coulda woulda shoulda" that come up as someone actually starts to feel new levels of empowerment in their lives. ● Why "regret" is actually a POWERFUL teacher in our lives if we explore it intentionally and from a place of self-compassion. ● How our past can be a tool used to destroy or a tool used to build our futures. ● The questions to ask yourself when you are pondering "what could have been" to intentionally build your future.

The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene (Full Audiobook) Robert Greene Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature.In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum.Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in t LE HAWKESBURY SOCIAL ’BACK TO LIFE’ ADAM STACEY Welcome to the ‘Le Hawkesbury Social’, 'Back to Life’ a space where we celebrate life in all its colors: happiness, joy, love, connection, and even the moments of sadness that make us human.
