Do you think about your past and feel negative emotions like regret or embarrassment? Do you wish you focused on the present and the future more?
Then this blog post is for you.
When I was younger I did many stupid things which I would not do now.
I failed in class, dropped out of engineering college, felt a lot of entitlement when I was younger, etc.
And there are many smaller things I have done which make me feel embarrassed even today.
But those things don’t matter. Because they are irrelevant.
All that matters is the present and the future.
Because life is about self-discovery, not the past life.
Every day when I think about doing something I think about this in some way or the other.
I think that life is about self-discovery and that there are so many things I can discover about myself when I try new things.
There’s no point remembering the past.
I think maintaining a journal is helpful for this reason. Because writing helps you write the memories down and let it go in some way.
I write in a journal almost daily. And it’s fun.
I write what I feel in the present and what happened in the past and what I want in life in the future.
So yeah the past doesn’t matter. All that matters is the present and the future.
Thank you for reading this line! It means a lot.
