A mountain biker rode on a trail she'd been on at least 50 times. During some of those rides, she'd fallen and hurt herself. Because of her past history, she was haunted by what the biking community calls "ghosts."
She remembered the injuries. She remembered where the obstacles are located that caused her pain, and she avoided them.
Her experience changed, though, when she rode that very same trail with a group of riders who traveled this way for the first time and were decades younger than her, including a woman who's a national champion.
Not having bad memories, they tackled the trail with abandon.
While riding she said to herself, "Let's pretend I haven't been on this trail before."
It was a whole new experience. She quickly rode over obstacles, that she'd been avoiding, and was unscathed. Didn't fall down. Didn't get hurt.
She told me that it's the same in business and life.
Don't let old ghosts from the past, which cause you to hesitate, get in the way of taking action and being successful.
Let go of the bad experiences.
What ghosts can you let go so you can tackle your life, business or work with abandon?
When you shift your focus and gain perspective, you can position yourself to create positive momentum.
You can let go and move on without giving a second thought to your past.
Living with
ghosts of the past that continue to be
a haunting presence?
Contact me to learn how to let go, move forward
and feel the sweet joy of freedom!
