Recently a motivational speaker posted this question on Facebook.
“Where would you be, what would you have and how would you think differently if you didn’t let anyone or any negative thought from your past rent space in your head?”

In my opinion…you wouldn’t be anywhere near who you are today!

It is a fact that some of the very best drivers for personal and business success are things that happened to us in the past.

Did you know that over ninety percent of all great comedians had a tough childhood?
They have “felt” our pain and “been there and done that.” That is why they touch us with their universal stories and make us laugh. They learned how to overcome problems and challenges and now use it in a constructive manner to generate income and make people laugh.

Personally, I wouldn’t want a life without the wisdom that comes from messing up, falling down and using those life experiences as motivation to achieve.

What is interesting is that this same speaker who is telling us not to have negative thoughts in your head… has negative stories about divorce with his family splitting up and hard times on his website.

Now why would it be OK to announce to the world negative things, but not rent space for them in your head?

If you are continuously telling these same stories from the past… tell me HOW they cannot be in your head?

Just saying here.

Or maybe the moral of the story is that it’s OK to have the negative past experiences… as long as you use them to pay the rent!
