Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “There is no knowledge that is not power.”

Take responsibility for your life. Free yourself from your past disappointments. They are in the past. If you want them to remain in the past, you must free yourself from them. Do not let your past define your life. Do not let your past determine how far you can go in your life. Do not limit yourself. Because God has a lot in store for you. It is up to you.

You can change your life. Do not wait for anyone to do it for you. They are not going to do it for you. Because they have their own problems to deal with. Do not wait. Just do your own thing. You have the power to do anything you set out to do in your life. Do not wait for people to do for you what you can do for yourself. If you do, they will never respect you.

Respect yourself by taking responsibility for your life. You have the power to do it. You have the power to say no to what is hurting you. You have the power to say yes to your life, to love, to happiness, to life. Above all, you have the power to say no to your past. And you have the power to create a new life, to wear new clothes, to make new friends, to follow a different path. To do that, you must trust yourself. You must believe in yourself. You must not let your past failures to control your present life. Whenever you catch yourself doubting yourself, you must replace it with a positive thought- a life expanding thought.

Your Past Need Not Determine Your Future

According to Bhagavad Gita, “As you put on fresh new clothes and take off those you’ve worn, you’ll replace your body with a fresh one, newly born.” It is time to take off your old clothes and wear your new ones. It is time to stop living in the past.

No matter what you been through in your life, do not let it stop you from living in the moment. Do not let hate stop you from living in the moment. Do not let disappointments stop you from becoming the person you were created to be. It is hard, but doable.

Free yourself from your past by loving yourself. Do not let your past failures determine your present life. You cannot forget your past, but you have the power to control your present. Do not give in to your past circumstances. Do not give in to your past failures, mistakes. Instead, use your past mistakes to design your future. You have a choice. You always have choices, yet you don’t use them to strengthen your path forward. To move forward, you must say no to your horrible past.
