“Forget past mistakes. Forget failures. Forget everything except what you’re going to do now and do it.”
– William Durant
Don’t think about what you were like yesterday. Think about who you want to be tomorrow. Don’t worry about your past just care about your future. Don’t let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.
Furthermore, don’t let your past mistake hold you back. Instead, move forward and put all your effort into the things that you are going to do. Make sure to always remain focused on the future and never the past.
Remember, no one will ever be able to see your future, but you can. So, don’t worry about the past and live for today and tomorrow. Think about your future, this is the key to success. Don’t worry about what you’ve already done, just keep doing what you’re doing.
