When you look into your past, you see your past, not your future. But you are no longer living in the past. You are living in the present. The present has the key to your future. The present is the way to where you are going. The present is the bridge between where you are and where you want to be. The Present is the connection between who you are and who you are becoming. It is important to respect your present. If you don’t live your present well, it will be difficult for you to live a better future. Because what you are doing right now is shaping your future, not your past.

Your past is your past. It is gone. The only good thing you can do with your past is to learn from it. You can visit your past for knowledge, but not to live there. No matter what you have done in your past, don’t look into your past with regret. Embrace it. It is not coming back to you. It is time to write a new chapter of your life. Now is the time to write a new story. And writing a new story of your life needs concentration. You need to concentrate on what you are doing in the present. Don’t go back to your old ways of doing things.

Instead of going back to your old life, why not go forward. There is no life in the past, but the future is full of opportunities. Why not take them? Remember, you are your boss. If you want to change your life, if you want to change your future, if you want to change the direction of your life, change what is not working for you. You can only do that in the present, not in the past. Your possibilities are in the present, not in the past. Your past is gone. Your present is now. Face your future with confidence, without fear, and with a loving heart. The choice is yours.

Why You Should Always Spend Time With The People You Love

Having great people around us is a gift we should never take for granted. If you take it for granted, life will not be fair with you. Human beings are social animals. We like to be around great people, people who respect us. We need great people in our lives. If you have not found one, it is never to late. We need them. They need us. You need them. They need you. You cannot work alone, live alone, or love alone. You need great people to lift you up when you are down. You need great people to raise your energy up when your energy is down. You need great people to celebrate with you when things are good. You need great people to mourn with you when things are bad.

No matter who we think we are, we need great people around us. According to James C. Collins, “For no matter what we achieve, if we don’t spend the vast majority of our time with people we love and respect, we cannot possibly have a great life. But if we spend the vast majority of our time with people we love and respect, people we really enjoy being on the bus with- and who will never disappoint us- then we will almost certainly have a great life, no matter where the bus goes.” Your success depends on your relationships with other people. Because you cannot do it alone. You need other people’s brains to get things done. So if you want to be successful in your life, you need help from other people.
