You control what you do next, regardless of what happened before. Own your past, stay present, and decide your actions without letting circumstances push you around. That's how you build a life you actually want.
It all comes down to personal responsibility. Those people who are willing to step up to the plate and go, do you know what? No matter what's happened in the past, I am here. I am present. I'm taking responsibility for my life, where I am, and very importantly, what I'm gonna do next. And then decide that no matter what comes their way in the future, that same personal responsibility, that trait shows up in every single thing that they do because then they're not subject to all the other external forces that are going on. They're in control of their own decision-making and they're in a space of true commitment and devotion. To the outcome that they want to create, not just to be until it becomes uncomfortable.
