DRAGGING THE PAST FORWARD WILL NOT SPEED YOU TO THE FUTURE by J Loren Norris

DRAGGING THE PAST FORWARD WILL NOT SPEED YOU TO THE FUTURE by J Loren Norris

THERE IS AN ALBATROSS TO SUCCESS WHICH MOST UNSUCCESSFUL PEOPLE PERCEIVE AS THEIR KEY TO OPPORTUNITY.

Like that extension cord caught on everything in the shed, there are elements of your past which will follow you destructively into your future if you do not consciously decide to disentangle them.

Many people have been convinced that their best opportunity for a future filled with wealth is revenge on someone from their past. Whether it be a lawsuit, an inheritance, a payback or some other form of recompense.

The truth is, seeking either mental/ emotional or financial revenge carries a much stiffer penalty than reward. What it costs in terms of stress, emotional burden, lost hope, perpetual anxiety, internal attacks on self worth and self confidence will often take a greater toll on the ability to earn than the revenge would pay out. (REMEMBER TRUE SUCCESS IS ABOUT WHO YOU BECOME NOT WHAT YOU GAIN)

Most people who WORK HARD for their money, operate with sense of justice as they should. They believe, “If I do right, right will be done TO me.” And it should be that way. But it is not always true.

Sometimes bad guys do win. Some times cheaters do get ahead. Some times injustice prevails. Sometimes corruption is not easily overcome.

But if we’re going to succeed, we need to understand human nature is imperfect and we cannot force change on other people. SO - to move FORWARD TO SUCCESS we must be willing to forgive and forget.

Forgiveness a choice. Its a hard choice. Its an unpopular choice. Its an inconvenient choice. But dragging your past will slow or prevent your ARRIVING IN YOUR FUTURE. To accelerate your success, you must forgive, especially if the offender is YOU!
