Tuesday, March 13, 2018 - Motivation Quotes of the Day! Good Morning Everyone!
Today is: "Past & the Power to Define You!" Why Not?
"The Past is the Past & it can be a ball & chain. Don't let it weigh down where you want to go, pull back on your dreams, or stop you from achieving your goals; let go of the chain." — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The Quote in the Picture Today Reads: "Once your past no longer has the power to define you, your future is quite literally, yours for the taking. Every Single beautiful thing you could possibly want to imagine will be yours." — Dan Pearce
"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present." — Bil Keane
"You realize that our mistrust of the future makes it hard to give up the past." — Chuck Palahniuk
"We are products of our past, but we don't have to be prisoners of it." — Rick Warren
"The past was always there, lived inside of you, and it helped to make you who you were. But it had to be placed in perspective. The past could not dominate the future." — Barbara Taylor Bradford
"The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there." — L.P. Hartley
"The past can teach us, nurture us, but it cannot sustain us. The essence of life is change, and we must move ever forward or the soul will wither and die." — Susanna Kearsley

Interesting quotes today, Mike. Confucius and Kierkegaard had two quotation that were very similar to each other that keep the past in its proper perspective. .
“Study the past if you would define the future.”
― Confucius
“Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”
― Søren Kierkegaard

Good Morning COL. The past is history.Your own personal history is certainly what defines you, creates you as you are in the present. So the one that resonates with me of course is the most simple:
"We are products of our past, but we don't have to be prisoners of it." — Rick Warren
Take the right steps and you will have a wonderful fulfilling life....Take the wrong steps and it is a very long staircase. Have a fantastic Nor'Easter day ! I sure hope someone answered this first so as not to mess up my 1776 TB !
