LIVE a Better Life #1

I get a daily email from www.lifehack.org and really enjoyed the post "Live a Better Life by Making These 8 Choices", so here is the first choice:

1. Let go of the Past. 
Memories are fine, but when we are fixated on the past and/or much to the chagrin of  friends and family, constantly rehashing what happened, we cheat ourselves for enjoying the present. 
LEAVE it behind- our lives are not equipped with a 'rewind' button.
LEARN from it-  Johnny Cash said: "You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space."
MOVE ON, stronger than before!  George Washington said: "We should not look back unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors, and for the purpose of profiting by dearly bought experience."
"Great things are waiting for you out there"
