Only 2 Days…

Ugh, so it only took me two days to miss my first post. Damn, I really wanted that streak of every day posts. Oh well, climb back on the horse, reset the clock, and push forward. No looking back, no looking back at all.

I spent the better part of 7 years looking back at my failures. Even when I thought I understood the good that came of failing; even though I was a peace with failing; even though I intellectually knew that in order to grow, we had to fail…. Still, I kept looking back.

Then, right around year 10, for whatever reason, I finally let it go. I no longer look back in anger or sadness at my failure, but instead only have eyes for the now, and what lies beyond. Yes, I took time to learn from my mistakes, and that is something that is most important if we are to grow, but that is different than living in the past.

Learning, accepting, embracing that the only thing that I can control is right now, and that the past is just that, the past, has finally set me free to once again be inspired by who I am and what I want to accomplish. It is not all rosy, but I finally feel that sense of purpose and drive, that once led me to solid success.

So, I missed yesterday, picked it up today, and onward we push.
