“Never be a prisoner of your past. Become the architect of your future. You will never be the same.”
― Robin Sharma

We don’t regret or shut the door on the past. Focusing our attention on emotions like Regret is our brain’s way of tricking us into believing that we are doing something to solve the problem

Where focus goes energy flows so if regret is playing a tape of past events over and over again in our minds then we are programming our Reticular Activating System (RAS) to be on alert for more opportunities to practice the same past behavior in the present day.

If we are reliving past events in the present day but imagining that we are doing something different with the hope that this will somehow prevent us from repeating it then we are delusional and living with resentment

Hope is not a strategy and resentment is a Mindset Killer.

It’s responsible for the death of more dreams, joy, relationships, careers, and happiness than any other emotion.

What we need is a plan to embrace our past as a teacher or “Architect” for our feature.

Taking a regular inventory of our emotions such as fear, regret and resentment is the path to Wholeness
