You can’t hold the new without dropping the past

Focusing on the positive strides you are making towards attaining a new goal or towards achieving a new state of being is the message this week. Following up your intentions with dedication & determined action without obsessing on what you’re leaving behind or what’s gone wrong in regard to meeting that objective.  This new start is just within reach so step up your efforts towards it. Doubt, regret, or grudges will not propel you forward. They keep you stuck, stagnant & bitter restricting your progress. You cannot bring them into this new state of happiness & joy you are trying to achieve. You are responsible for your own happiness and blame, anger or feeling the victim will contaminate this new beginning & will only poison the good you are trying to chase. The past cannot be changed so the “should have’s” and “ought to be’s” have to be silenced. Ruminating over old hurts and holding on to crappy feelings from what's been done are just slowing you down from where you are meant to be. Know that the seeds of a beautiful & beneficial change have already been sown from your intention & prayers. It all hinges upon your readiness to empty your hands of old emotional baggage to be ready to receive a new start.
