Are You Dwelling in the Past and Sabotaging Your Future?

Our past is a beautiful thing. It created the people we are today. It gave us experience and life lessons. It gave us a guide for how we should live.

But while our past is a helpful tool, it can be damaging if used incorrectly.

What do I mean by that?

Well, when we use past experiences to keep us from striving toward a dream, for instance, that’s a damaging way to use our past.

Most of us have no doubt experienced failure at some point in our lives. It’s just part of life.

But many of us allow this failure to limit how we live in the present or how we plan for the future. And then sometime later when we have a dream, or a desire for our lives, we remember this failure from our past and we either push the new dream aside or spend our lives fruitlessly trying to achieve it while at the same time not believing it’s even possible. We don’t truly think we will succeed because that one time we tried, we failed. So, why bother now? What’s the point of trying this new dream when we’re just going to fail anyway?

And because our subconscious mind is so great at protecting us, it works to sabotage our future. It remembers the feeling we felt when we failed and it tries to keep us from experiencing this feeling of failure or disappointment again.

So, how do we overcome this? How do we overcome ourselves so that we pursue a dream without automatically thinking we’re going to fail?

We must stop living in the past and using life lessons incorrectly. We must focus on living in the present moment and assume that everything will work out for our good.

The past is done. The past was dictated by old beliefs. If we release all those old, unhelpful beliefs, and we start believing in the good ones, we will start pursuing new dreams without worrying about the outcomes. We’ll allow ourselves to see success instead of failure.

And that is the beginning of a whole new journey.
