Reason to Under Achieve No 7 – Wasting Precious Life On Regrets
We all have things that didn’t work out. Things that we would have done differently, and it’s always good to take a long hard look at the impact our actions have in our life and on other people.
It’s also good to spend some time in reflection looking at what you will do differently next time and how you can learn from your mistakes.
But ultimately, you have to LET IT GO! Let go of the past, focus on what’s great in your life right now, and create a compelling future for what will be.
Every minute, hour, week, month and year you waste on blaming, shaming, criticising and regret does nothing but reduce the happiness you can experience in your own life. It robs you of your passion to move forward and look at “what’s next?”
The question here is “What stories can I give up about events in the past, the giving up of which will help me to move forward?”
Take a long hard look at the business deals that didn’t work out, the partner that didn’t support, the people that “did stuff to you.” Are you ready to let it all go?
This is not about blame. Maybe what they did was wrong, but by you continually focusing on it that will not make it right, or change what happened. Is it time to find another way?
