-What's done
What's done is done. The time and energy you spend complaining about it will get you nothing but a lot of frustration and negativity.
What's happened has happened. Instead of looking back, fretting and arguing about why or how or who is at fault, look forward and consider all the positive possibilities that are available to you.

If you've been wronged, don't seek revenge. Seek success, seek achievement, seek fulfillment, seek to take what has happened and turn it into a positive force in your life.

Spend your time and energy not in looking back, but in looking ahead. For that is where you can make a difference.

Learn from what has happened, allow it to inspire and motivate you in a positive way, and then choose to move forward. See the value in the way things are at this moment, and see how you can make full use of that value.

Let go of your attachment to what has already happened. And make room in your life to create the very best that can be.

-- Ralph Marston

----this is so true....talking from personal exp. What this guy just wrote about is that a person need to live in the present moment, only using the past as a rememberance of good times to keep you motivated, successes and achievments (even learning to wipe your own bum as a toddler, answering the phone, learning to drive a car). Dont think of sadness from your past or perceived failures...only if you are thinking about them to guide you from potential misery.When i was depressed and anxious, i used to really dwell on the past pains. It did nothing except make me think darker-sadder and angrier...back to depression. About 2 years ago to todays date, i changed my thinking and learned to always be in the present...to not look much further then the next 12 hours ahead. TRUST ME..this works....every single thing you will ever read about how to get out of a shitty mental state, will mention this as fact. Those that cannot do this, just dont want it because they made up their own minds that they will always be the way they are...and as you think, you get. Only exception to the rule is a person clinically depressed and need a prescribed drug to get his/her seratonin levels up and have a normally functioning brain. I personal know a few people like this..one is a friend..the other my own brother. Whenever you can....depending on your circumstances, stay away from psychiatric drugs....and IF you can...look to excercise, proper nutrition and cognitive therapy. Obviously much more to it then that....if you dont agree with my opinion, then help yourself and prove me wrong. ---savage beagle :wink:
