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

Anger towards the past...

The more anger towards the past you carry in your heart,
the less capable you are of loving in the present.

You are not your past

You are not your past actions.
You are not your past failures.
You are not how others have at one time treated you.
You are only who you think you are right now in this moment.
You are only what you do right now in this moment.

Burning bridges...

Sometimes burning bridges is awesome. It prevents you from going back to places you should have never visited to begin with.

Reach for something new...

You can’t reach for anything new if your hands are still full of yesterday’s junk.
- Louise Smith

You are more...

You are more than the choices you make

You are more than the sum of your mistakes

You are more than the problems you create

You’re not afraid

You’re not scared of the dark,
You’re scared of what’s in it.
You’re not afraid of heights,
You’re afraid of the pain of falling.
You’re not afraid of people around you,
You’re just afraid of rejection.
You’re not afraid of love,
You’re just afraid of not being loved back.
And you’re not afraid to try again,
You’re just afraid of getting hurt for the same reason.

This too, shall pass.

When things are bad, remember:
it won’t always be this way.
Take one day at a time.
When things are good, remember:
it won’t always be this way.
Enjoy every moment.

Forgive yourself, and begin again.

Today forget your past, forgive yourself, and begin again.

Don't look back...

Just because the past taps you on the shoulders, doesn't mean you have to look back.

Let go…

It’s time to let go…
(it will be ok)

Don't become trapped in the past

Do not allow yourself to become trapped in the past.
There are better things ahead than any we leave behind.

When someone believes in you

It’s amazing how far you are willing to go when someone believes in you.

Believe in you and your dreams

Always surround yourself with people who believe in you and your dreams.

People will laugh...

People will laugh at your dreams, then they hate you when you make them come true.

If your dreams don’t scare you they’re not big enough

Follow your dreams...

Follow your dreams and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls.

When you start doing what you love...

An amazing thing happens when you get honest with yourself and start doing what you love, what makes you happy. Your life literally slows down. You stop merely looking forward to special events. You begin to live in each moment and you start feeling like a human being. You just ride the wave that is life, with this feeling of contentment and joy. You move fluidly, steadily, calm and grateful. A veil is lifted, and a whole new perspective is born. 

Dreams don’t work unless you do.

20 seconds of insane courage

All you need is 20 seconds of insane courage and I promise you something great will come of it.
