Good Morning and if you haven’t already started accomplishing your day, here we go, as we get ready to begin!! Today I want you to remember the good times and rather than looking back and regretting anything in the past or that may have not been so good… take a moment to learn from the those past experiences.
Use your past memories as a source of learning! Don’t stress over your mistakes and punish yourself for things that didn’t go as planned. Don’t stress about “shoulda, woulda, coulda”. What good does that do??? Revisiting those past experiences, that maybe didn’t go as planned can cause you to fear possibly making another or the same mistake. The key to making meaningful changes is to pay more attention to the the PRESENT moment. Some of the best athletes don’t dwell on the past but rather they concentrate on making corrections and getting the next one right. A “failed attempt” is forgotten and they don’t fear trying again. If you mess up, work hard to leave it behind and concentrate on the possibilities yet to come. Tomorrow is much brighter when your not focused on yesterday.
Enjoy your Tuesday and Present and nothing in the past but learned experiences! 🙂
hugs,
Gina
Wouldn’t it be ever so boring if everything was always perfect, we would never struggle and never made mistakes or take bad decisions? We would never learn anything, we could never better ourselves… I rather have my imperfect life. Of course, I regret stuff sometimes… for 2 minutes… 🙂 Then I remember that it is part of who I am, my personnality… and move on! I try to learn from these “mistakes” which I prefer to call “experiments”… 🙂
You guys make mistakes???? 😛
HEY THERE EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!! I’m going to have an awesome moving forward week! I’ve decided that this is going to be the week that I turn up the intensity. I’m 4 weeks out….HOLY MOLY!!!! WOOOOT WOOOOT. I feel like this is the point in the prep that separates the women from the little girlies! When everyone else is getting tired, losing steam, wanting to rest….wanting to stop….ERYN IS UPPING THE INTENSITY….UPPING THE REPS……GETTING MORE AND MORE PUMPED…..and MOVING FORWARD!!! CHOOO CHOOOO!!!
Lets do this!

Claudine, that is what I am saying! wouldn’t life be boring!! Struggles, mistakes, imperfections, that is what makes us grow and what makes life exciting and live in anticipation for better. We are who we are, mistakes and all! Learn, grow, accept and move on… you’ve got it girlie!! 🙂
Eryn– lol, I know, what mistakes, huh??!! Sounds like you are moving forward and have such a great attitude. You are moving from the little girl stage to the womanly stage, if that isn’t closer to the truth. This is when you get tested and learn more and more about yourself and what you are capable of! You are on the right path and doing so awesome!! Keep up the great work! We are right here with you! Choo Choo.. xo
Go Eryn !! Claudine, I like the concept of experiments. I have many bad ones and I needed this thought for today because this week, I’ve been dwelling a lot on one of my most painful past experiences. But, I am determined to release myself from the pain of it. I have to to face each day with enthusiasm.
Drena,
I am sorry that you are feeling this way at the moment… I know some things scar you for life, and that it’s really not easy every day, but it makes you stronger and wiser and you wouldn’t be who you are if things had happened differently. Think on the bright side, scars are sexy 😉
Drena, It is so hard sometimes to let go of the past and move on! It is a hard concept to not dwell or think about how things would be different because your situation would be completely different if you did not have those past experiences. Just like Claudine said, it makes you stronger and wiser!! It is so hard to do but with daily practice of letting go, the rest will unfold beautifully. Without closing those doors, new ones will not open. Opportunities are waiting for you, you just have to close one door to allow them in! Day by day… Just Breath;)
Thank you so much Claudine and Gina. I needed that. 🙂
