Forgive yourself first. Release the need to replay a negative situation over and over again in your mind. Don’t become a hostage to your past by always reviewing and reliving your mistakes. Don’t remind yourself of what should have, could have or would have been. Release it and let it go. Move on.

Things are not going to improve for you in life until YOU improve

At the end of the day, it's important to know what really matters most in life...your sanity, your health, your family, and the ability to start anew.

Sometimes you've got to #‎ believe in someone else's belief in you until your #‎ belief kicks in.

In the end, it is the person you become, not the things you have achieved, that is the most important.

In life, friendships change, divorces happen, people move on, others die. Money and jobs will come and go. Live long enough and your health and body will change. It goes with the territory of being human. The fact that you are still here gives you an advantage. Don't look back. Look straight ahead!! Decide to use all of your knowledge, skills, experiences and your life lessons from your mistakes, defeats and setbacks, to start over again. Life changes. You may not have the same life as before, but you can still enjoy your life!

Life is a fight for territory and once you stop fighting for what you want, what you don't want will automatically take over.
