Forgive Yourself for Not Knowing Any Better

You ever look back at an old version of yourself and cringe a little? The things you said… the people you trusted… the mistakes you made?

Yeah. You're NOT alone.

Here's something to keep in mind.. You didn’t fail you learned. You weren’t broken... you were becoming into the person who would one day know better.

We can’t judge a younger version of ourselves for using the only awareness they had at the time. You were doing the best you could with what you knew... and that’s always enough.

Think of life like learning to drive. At first, you stall the car, miss a turn, or maybe even hit a curb.. But years later, you glide through traffic effortlessly. Would you still shame the version of you who was just learning? Of course not.. You'd smile and say, “Wow, look how far I’ve come.” The same goes with a baby learning how to walk.. You know that in due time.. after failing time and time again... success will inevitably take its course. It's not different with you and you're evolution as a human on Earth.

Here's a Practice For You: “The Mirror Moment”

Here’s your one minute daily reset. Stand in front of a mirror, look yourself in the eyes, and say:

“I forgive you for what you didn’t know back then...Thank you for growing, for trying, and for still being here.”

Do that for 7 days straight and watch how your heart softens and your energy lightens.

What’s one thing from your past that you’re ready to finally forgive yourself for? Drop it in the comments and let your story be heard.

Because the moment you forgive yourself…you stop being at war with your own evolution.

YOU GOT THIS!
