Introduction Text Loved this Healthy Reflections on email from 6/16/11   Shut out all of your past except that which will help you weather your tomorrows. - William Osler, Canadian physician Remembering the good times, learning from the bad Memory can be used for good or for evil. If you use your past as a source of learning, it's worth remembering. If, however, all you do is mull over your mistakes and punish yourself for your failures, it's a waste of time. Rehashing failure can paralyze you in mortal fear of making another mistake, which, of course, just makes the feeling worse and practically guarantees future letdowns. The key to making meaningful changes is to pay more attention to the future than to the past. Have you ever noticed that the best athletes also have the shortest and most selective memories? Instead of dwelling on a missed shot or a flawed dive, they concentrate on making corrections and getting the next one right. It's as if the failed attempt never happened. It's forgotten and they don't fear trying again. If you mess up, even in an epic, life-altering way, work hard to leave it behind and concentrate on the possibilities yet to come. Tomorrow is much brighter when it's n ot smeared with a fixation on yesterday.

If you want to go far, go together. ~African proverb Do not be afraid of going slowly; be afraid only of standing still. ~ Chinese Proverb Finish each day and be done with it.
