FREE YOURSELF FROM YOUR PAST

Don’t hold it against yourself or use it to try to predict your future. When you do, you will just create more of the same. Repeat what you already have created so far. Your past has nothing to do with your future, useless you use it as a template for how to live your life.

If you have not yet created the results in your life that you want to create, stop using your past to justify and explain why you have not achieved them. Instead focus on what it is that you want to create.

Go to that appealing future that is available to you, no matter where you currently are on your journey. Create from your future rather than from your past, that’s when you can create something new.

This opens up endless possibilities.

Did you know that your brain is wired to wanting to be right more so than to be happy?

It’s also wired to be biassed toward negativity and worst case scenarios.

This is where self sabotage comes in. We look to our past to find proof or evidence as to why something will not work instead of looking towards the future and the infinite possibilities as to why it could work.

We then give up as soon as we have gathered enough proof that it did not work, so that we can be right. Instead of keep on trying different ways of approaching the challenge until we find a successful way through it.

Primitive part of the brain:

• Negativity bias

• Past focus

• Loves to be right

Prefrontal cortex:

• Solution oriented

• Future focused

• Loves to create

Which part of the brain are you activating the majority of your awake time?
