My reason (family)

Do you ever wonder why you never look back ? In life there are so many reasons why we do look back, here are the top three reasons.

Reason one on why we look back is because it’s what we know.

Reason two - it’s what we are comfortable with.

Reason three - it holds us back from what we can be.

We tend to stay with what we know and feel safe with ,instead of moving forward and being scared of new opportunities for the better.

It’s time to change all of those negative thoughts and start moving forward,take that risk, you will then be surprised at where you will end up. So for anyone who is scared to step out of your comfort zone just remember to never look back.

We teach our kids to do their best at anything that they want to do and to not be scared to try something new , in the process of adulthood we forget that and we get scared when new things come up .

Moving forward is scary because -

One - it’s new.

Two - we care too much what others think and because of that it makes us want to look back.

What does looking back do ?

It stops us from seeing what we really can be , and what we really can do , it makes you feel like your stuck and trapped .

Moving forward can push us to be stronger , better , more confident.

You feel amazing after you accomplished your new goal , then you start feeling safe , secure.

Because of feeling safe and secure, you begin to be more motivated to keep moving forward, you then get even more excited to see the results and where you actually end up.

At that point you don’t ever want to look back ever again.

So when you see someone struggling with moving forward help them to realize that it’s not so scary, you will be rewarded in the end.

You will meet new people

You will go on new adventures.

It will reveal who you truly are as a person and what new talents you have hidden from yourself.

We all need to keep more positive thoughts growing in our minds.

To help keep us out of these bad habits of looking back.

The more we can help each other see the beauty in moving forward. The more we push out judgemental people that get in our way.

This world hungers for failure and that’s what makes it so easy for us to hide away.

It does take courage, strength, and to have a good support system to help us along the way.

Staying in the good habit of not looking back takes time and descipline. Practicing good habits will steer us away from looking back.

Being around more inspirational people will also help us stay on track of moving forward.

Getting rid of people who don’t inspire you to be better , do better.

For example my husband and I inspired each other to start our family business.

I inspired my husband to do his design work to be added to our family business, and my husband inspired me to put my writing out there again.

My husband then created a blog section on our family business page so that I can put my poems and stories on there for people to enjoy as well as shopping for simple gifts.

We are helping each other at moving forward everyday.

We can’t wait to see our results and where our family business will take us.

If you don’t have inspiration, motivation, or passion, it will be harder for you to move forward.

So let’s all group together and support each other on all of the new things we want to try, and help each other go from looking back to always moving forward.
