It’s human nature to dwell on the bad and ugly things that happen to us. We replay conversations in our heads, clinging onto the hurtful words that were said. We relive our past failures, allowing them to define us.

But what good does it do? It only robs us of the present moment, preventing us from fully experiencing all the beauty that surrounds us.

Instead of dwelling on what went wrong, why not focus on what went right? Train your mind to let go of the negative thoughts and emotions that weigh you down.

Have you ever noticed how quickly you forget the small inconveniences that happen throughout your day? That rude comment from a stranger or the traffic jam on your way to work – they have a way of fading into the background when something positive comes along.

So why not apply this principle to the bigger, more significant challenges in your life?

I believe that every setback is an opportunity for a comeback. It’s a chance to learn valuable lessons, to become stronger, and to move forward. But in order to do that, you must learn to forget quicker than you remember. It’s not about denying the pain or the hardships you’ve experienced, but rather shifting your focus to the possibilities that lie ahead.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Forget quicker than you remember!

“Forget the hurt, the pain, and the disappointments quicker than you remember them. This allows room for healing, growth, and the choice to live your every day with a smile. When you let go of the past, you give yourself permission to embrace the present and create your now.”

So, shift your mindset today. Instead of dwelling on what went wrong, ask yourself what you can learn from the situation. What new opportunities and possibilities await you? Be grateful for the lessons learned and the strength gained. Surround yourself with positive influences – friends, mentors, and uplifting media – that remind you of your true potential. Turn off the distractions that make you go back in the negative part of your day. Turn on music that makes your soul dance.

Be present in the moment, savoring the simple joys that often go unnoticed. The laughter of a loved one, the warmth of the sun on your skin, the taste of your favorite meal – these are the moments that make life worth living. It’s getting cooler outside, which means now you get to be a little more snuggly. When you fully immerse yourself in the moment, you’ll find it easier to let go of the past and embrace the here and now.

And as much as you are kind to a stranger, be kind to yourself today. You need an internal hug, too. We are all human, and we all make mistakes. So forgive yourself for the times you’ve stumbled, and celebrate your progress. Each new day is a fresh start with new mercies, a clean slate to create your now.

My friend, I encourage you to forget quicker than you remember. Let go of the negativity and embrace the beauty that surrounds you. If you look for it, I promise you will find it. See your day through the eyes of a toddler. When you fall down, brush yourself off and smile. This is your day to shine bright.

“Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!“
