We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future.

About This Quote

If you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future, then you should never feel ashamed of your past. When people feel bad about their mistakes or failures in life, they keep replaying over them in their minds. This leads to more regret. If you are not your struggles, then you shouldn’t focus on them either.

You shouldn’t worry about how others think of you. You shouldn’t be afraid of any future problems that might come up. And most importantly, you shouldn’t feel bad about yourself for having any regrets at all.
