How to Stop Spending All Your Time Thinking About the Past and the Future

If you have a habit of constantly replaying in your mind the things that went wrong and what could have been done differently, then it's time to stop spending all your time thinking about the past. You see, it's never too early or too late to think of the good times and how much the past cost you. It's never too early or too late to start putting a new future into action.


I've got news for you. Your future is not going to be shaped by what you did in the past. The past is gone with it! So don't spend any more time thinking about what you can't do or what you've already done. Don't spend any more time living in the past!

I know this sounds like common sense but many people don't start focusing on their future until it's too late. They'll set goals for the future and get motivated when they meet their goals. They then put all their energy into fulfilling their future desires. Unfortunately, they often find out later that what they've wanted isn't realistic or practical for them right now.

Here's the secret: don't set yourself up to be a victim of circumstance. If you want to have a better future or make changes to your life that will make a difference, you need to start believing that you can and will achieve those things. Spending all your time thinking about the past will only drain your energy and rob you of the success you truly deserve. Start today by spending a few moments everyday thinking of how you can improve yourself. Use that time to learn new skills, meet new people, and meet new people who can help you achieve your future goals.

Don't spend your time worrying about what could have been or what could have failed. If you spend all your time thinking about the past you'll never discover your true potential or your true abilities. If you want to get ahead in life you must start doing what makes you excited and what gets you going. Instead of wasting your time thinking about what could've went wrong try doing what got you ahead in life.

If you're trying to stop spending all your time thinking about the past you must realize that there's always something else out there. No matter what your past has to offer you, there is always something else to learn and grow from. So don't waste your time thinking about the past. Spend it doing what's important right now. Use that time to learn new things, meet new people, meet new friends, and even pursue your passions.

The best time to do all your thinking is when you're not busy. When you wake up in the morning do you ever stop and think about what you need to get done? Most people do. Then what do they do the rest of the day? Usually nothing, because by the time they get dressed they're already in a stressed state and are ready for anything to happen.

Stop spending all your time thinking about the past. Instead spend that time living in the future by learning all the knowledge that you can get your hands on today. When you learn to live in the future you'll live in a much better place than when you spend all your time thinking about the past. You'll be able to look back and smile knowing that you did the right thing.

Stop wasting your time worrying about what the future might bring. If you spend all your time worrying about the future you'll never have any fun. Enjoy life and stop trying to predict what's going to happen. You'll only be doing your future a favor.

Spend your time living in the present. Instead of wasting all your time thinking about the past and the future, spend it living in the present. Imagine yourself in college, envision yourself getting a good job, and enjoy every single moment of it. Every moment will teach you something about yourself and about life.


Stop spending all your time thinking about the past and the future. Instead, spend that time living in the present and enjoying all the great things that you've been given. And remember that you are loved and always have value. Life is beautiful and worth living!
