Do not allow anyone to hold you hostage to your past
Do not hold yourself hostage to your past.

Do not get stuck on your past successes.
Do not let what you lost make you fearful to rebuild.
Our background is made up of our experiences, both good and bad.
Many of us still tell stories about the good old days.
Then there are those who fight to forget the ugly that took place.
Who wants to relive, or even share the negative things that happened?
Dealing with ourself and who we were years ago can be frightful for some people.
Recalling those we disappointment, our mess ups, sabotage and even lack of integrity brings about guilt and shame.
However I want to encourage you to start tearing down the walls that have you prisoner to the darkness called your former life.
Begin pulling out lessons that you learned from your previous mistakes.
Turn the negativity around by celebrating your survival of what others did not make it out of.
.
Allow the child in you to daydream again…this time believe you can do it!
Be wise enough to accept all that you can not change, but courageous enough to change what you can
Decide not to allow the last season of your life to steal from the potential of a great life in front of you.
Fight harder to move forward than you do to stay stuck.
For the first time in a long time, just detox your soul from the toxins that your history left behind.
Wake up from your slumber and see that life is passing you by.
There is absolutely nothing you can do to change the past, but you have all power to change your now!
Stop having those conversations in your head about personal regrets.
Begin to speak to yourself about the bright future that awaits you.
Yes everything happened, and it was terrible.
But it is not happening now.
It really is in the past.
See your now!
Take full advantage of what is yours..
