There is a wise proverb that states that "We cannot go back and make a new start, but we can start now to make a new ending."

Many of us live in the past. We let past mistakes limit how we view ourselves. We let past experiences and disappointments outline just what we can and cannot do.

The truth of the matter is that we cannot affect those. They are history for a reason.

In one of his poems, Omar Khayyam says that no amount of tears can erase a sad chapter in our life. Similarly, no amount of thinking, reminiscing or remembering can change it either.

Make a decision today to focus not on correcting or changing the past. It cannot be done.

In stead, decide on making a new ending.
