Let Today Be Today

Don't let yesterday take up too much of today.

"Don't let yesterday take up too much of today." - Will Rogers

Events of the past can haunt you. The failures, the betrayals, the missed opportunities, the broken relationships. These can bring with them deep hurt, pain, and regret. Unfortunately for most, they never find a way to move past them. They allow these moments to play on repeat in their minds day after day. What should have been a moment, becomes a lifetime.

We have all experienced, and will again experience, these moments. There's nothing you can do to shield yourself from them; however, the way you respond will make all the difference. Will you allow the events of yesterday to carry over into today, or will you learn from, grow from, and strengthen yourself from them? The lessons from yesterday become strengths for today.

The difference between those who do and those who don’t is often one’s ability to focus on the future instead of the past. Be the person who wakes up every day willing to let the day be its own leaving the weight of the prior behind. Nothing in your past is worth throwing away your future.
