Good old days, does it really exist?
I hear a lot of folks saying; things were better in the olden days. This is not only a cliché, but a fallacy. Can you tell me what makes the olden days better? What is it easier to find money and happiness in the olden days? Were the days longer than it is now in the olden days? Or has sun’s rising and setting change direction?
We tend to think that we enjoyed yester-years more than today just to justify the change that has taken place in us (physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually). I think that the right phrase to be used is “the good new day”. Did our forefathers enjoy what we are enjoying to day? –the freedom, technology, exciting moments, etc
I want you to stop thinking about the past and focus all your attention and energy in the present and future. Ziglar advised that we should hang our yesterday’s worry on tree out side our house and notice that it will no longer be there for us carry when we eventually come back the following morning. This implies that yesterday is dead and gone as a musician rightly put it. So why killing yourself about a thing that is dead and gone?
If you really want a happy and fulfilled life, which I guess is why you are reading this article, try to live in the present while anticipating in the future. Join the wave of change; step up in your thinking, dressing, mode of communication, relationship, etc. You can never achieve that ‘YOU’ that you so much desire if you continue to live in the past. A word is enough for the wise – wake up.
Do the positive things that will get you motivated and help you stay motivated so that you can enjoy all the good things of life- To your new SUCCESS STORY!
