FORGETTING THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE BEHIND

in #nigeria8 years ago (edited)

Great Minds,
There are things that weigh us down, that push us back. The things which are behind, our past lives and experiences have today become the setbacks in our lives. These are the anchor that stagnate us and stopped our progress. This post emphasises the need to forget the past and press forward toward the goal and focus on reaching out to those things which are ahead.

WHAT ARE YOUR PAST
Everyone has a past with different experiences. While some past lives and experiences are sweet and worth reminiscing about, others have bitter and rough experiences that each time it is remembered, it is capable of putting one in frustration and devastated state. The impact of past experiences are reflective on our present lives. A lot of people find it difficult to forge ahead as a result of what they past through. Some are defined by their past, in fact you can easily tell their conditions based on the past deeds. These are people who hold unto the things which are behind, they refuse to forget the past and move on. For instance, you find a lady who is not married because she was jilted before so she finds it difficult to trust other men. Her past tells her all men are the same. Some people refuse to invest or deal perhaps online business because they were defrauded online before. Their past tell them no genuine online business.
Others who had sweet past and dwell on them never made any progress. They relied on past glory, they are known by what they have done or what their parents have done. The remembers the past and become complacent in reaching ahead.
There are people who ones lived bad, involved in evil deeds that turn to hunt them. Yes, whilevit is true that there is consequences for every deeds we do, it is important to forget the past and put them behind us. This will enable us to view life in another angle and put on the better of us. You can only do better when you realise the past is bad, forget it and seek for New ways to doing things. The more you put on the past and keep referring to it the less progress you will make. There is therefore, the need to forget those things which are behind and forge ahead.
THE NEED TO FORGET THE PAST

  1. The past reminds you of your limitations and lacks always putting you in a devastating mood.
  2. It draws you back always picturing your weak point.
  3. For those whose past were good, they tend to dwell on past GLORY each time they remember the past thereby preventing them from breaking new grounds and making progress.
  4. The past blindfold you from seeing the brighter ahead.
  5. When you remember more of the past, those things which are behind, you forget those things which are ahead.

Don't be defined by your past neither be weighed down by it. Rewrite your history by forgetting the past. One way to forget the past is to continuously look ahead, searching for new methods and new approach of doing things. Seek more information and develop the zeal, desire and hunger to know more.
Finally, if you want to attain a goal and reach out to those things which are ahead, you must forget the past. You must forget the fact that you lost before for you to win now.

Live sweet and enjoy life.

Thank you for reading.

I have to disagree with this "the need to forget the past". Every experience have molded us to what we are now. In fact, the past is a great learning experience with all of us.

But we should not let our past dictate our future. We need to let go of the past and focus on what we can do now. Past is past, and no matter how you kept bringing it back, there's not a thing that you can do about it. The best thing you can do is move forward. Focus on the things that matter today.

And live! Live life to the fullest.

Thanks for your argument.
Your para 2 sum up my intent.
