Here’s The One Thing You Need To Do Before You Let Go Of Your Past

So simple and yet we all ignore it…

Let me start by admitting it. I know it’s a bit of a clickbaity headline and I’ve got a feeling this article won’t satisfy you.

I’m well aware of it but no matter how I thought about it, I couldn’t find another way to put it.

But you know what? That’s ok. I’ve accepted it and can move on with writing this piece. If you like it, great! I’m happy about it. If not, meh, that happens, doesn’t it?

The funny thing about this fact is that it goes well with my point today

We cannot expect to go forward if we cannot accept the past

I really don’t mind about the clickbaity title because I’ve moved past it. I’ve accepted its flaws and will now try to live up to the standard I’ve given myself.

While this is an extremely simple example, life is just more complex.

We have all done things we aren’t proud of or endured hardships we could have never imagined before they happened.

Those are important experiences in our lives but can be so hurtful we try to push them away.
