Forgive the Limitations of Others

Forgive the limitations of others, because it really is impossible to please everybody. But if you take action by looking ahead and imagining how you will reach your goals, you will discover that sometimes other people are right! If they have a point or if their advice is right, then give it great credit. Remember, people learn from failures as well as successes, so when you set forth on your journey to become the best you can be, always act with a purpose.


When you always act with a purpose, you will also begin to see the good in everything and everybody, including yourself. It is impossible to remain angry at a situation if you do not understand what the underlying causes are. Learn about them so that you can change them. You cannot say "You are a limited person," if you are in possession of all the abilities and skills you can ever imagine. If you say, "You are a limited person," you are limiting yourself. So, begin to realize that others have as much potential as you do and that sometimes their actions have nothing to do with how they feel about themselves.

If you want to truly forgive the limitations of others, you must eliminate any expectations. If you tell yourself you don't expect anything or that you don't care what happens, that only reinforces the truth. If you believe that your circumstances are out of your control, it is impossible to take action without expecting results. So, if you find someone who tells you that you don't have control over the situation, accept that and move on. You cannot control or predict the future, but you do have control over the present and the past.

For those who believe that they have nothing to lose, always act with a purpose. The reason people do not achieve their goals is that they sit around and hope something will happen. When you have a purpose for trying to achieve something, you become more focused and energized. By having a purpose, you are more likely to remain consistent and don't allow minor setbacks to stop you from taking action. If you try to expect the worst and it still turns out good, that is not motivation you should be using.

Now, it is possible that your attitude has prevented you from acting with a purpose. If this is the case, you need to identify the cause of your lack of action. Then, you can work on changing your attitude. Remember, change your attitude from one of resistance to one of acceptance so you can always act with a purpose and never expect results.

Another reason you did not achieve your goals is because you did not try hard enough. The only way you can succeed in anything is by applying effort. This is what was missing from your life until you started to act with a purpose. Forgive the poor thing you did to prevent yourself from reaching your dreams.

There are many things you can do to start moving forward again. Remember, the past is the past. You cannot change what happened so stop making resolutions about how to change the future. It is not going to happen no matter what you do in the future. So, learn to forgive the bad things you did to prevent yourself from reaching your goals.


It is good to have hopes and dreams but sometimes people around us tend to dampen our spirits with their negativity. Learn to forgive them because it is very possible to turn everything around for the better. Forgive the bad thing you did to prevent yourself from reaching your goals. Turn your negative thoughts into positive ones that will propel you towards your goals.
