Your Past: More is Less.

"The past is our definition. We may strive, with

good reason, to escape it, or to escape what is

bad in it, but we will escape it only by adding

something better to it."

- WENDELL BERRY

Leslie Poles, the famous writer once said that "the past is like a foreign country; the do things differently there." Your past can do only one of two things for you. It can either empower you and serve as a place to learn and take joy from or it can limit you and keep you locked up in your rigid older self.

The common definition for insanity is expecting a different result by doing the same thing. If you keep doing what you've always done you will keep get what you've always gotten. This is why change is so important. There is a big difference between doing more and delivering more. When you deliver more you are creating more of what you really want. When you do more you just work harder and often with the same results as yesterday. This is why most people are just caught up in a cycle of behaviours where they keep doing the same things over and over again trying to produce a different result. In doing this they are actually re-creating and re-living "yesterday" every day. You have to start doing things differently if you want to produce a result and experience your life differently from what you had yesterday. read more...
