About This Quote

When you are in a bad place in your life, it's easy to blame others. It's also easy to blame the past. But if you make a commitment to move forward and focus on the present, you will be able to let go of the past. When you don't allow yourself to continue looking behind you, your eyes are on the road ahead. When you travel with your eyes focused forward, nothing can stop you.
