Don't Sacrifice Your Spectacular Future forYour Spoiled Past!

The past is not equal to the future. The only thing you can control in life is your reaction to your circumstances and opportunities, and when you control your reaction to and interpretation of your circumstances in a positive way, you can create any future you want. You can go through life looking through the rear-0view mirror at your past, or you can start creating a wonderful future - and the future starts RIGHT NOW. Isn't that exciting?

You can let the sad past pull you down, disempower you, discourage you and distract you, or you can create an exciting goal for your future and allow that positive objective to pull you through any temporary detour along the way. Remember, no-one can do it for you, and no-one can do it to you. YOU are the creator of your life, and you are responsible for the life you have, as well as the life you're going to have. You can live in regret about the past or enthusiasm about the future - you decide what you want to focus ion. The past is dead, and there's nothing you can do about it, but the future is whatever you decide to make of it! The future is your BEST FRIEND.

So don't allow past hurts and disappointments to pull you back and slow you down. Turn your back on the past, face the future boldly and optimistically, and determine that you won't quit until you make all your dreams come true. It's never too late to start over, and every new day is a new birth of your own, personal future. You'll be amazed at what you can accomplish with persistence, enthusiasm, a positive outlook, hard work, and good friends. Most of all, you need a very clear picture of your goals. The clearer and more vividly you can visualize exactly what you want your life to look like, the sooner and the more likely it will become a reality. Paul J. Meyer said, "Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon, must inevitably come to pass." Forget about the past - it's dead. Create the future you want.
