Our past experiences create memories, and learned ways of seeing the world around us.
Who we are, what we can do, what we should do, and what we shouldn’t do.
These experiences are part of our history.
In many cases, our history then, keeps us from seeing our full potential.
On the other side of the coin, embracing our personal story allows us to see where we have come from, the challenges we have overcome, our accomplishments and our achievements.
So, in another light, embracing our personal story allows us to unlock more of our potential.
We can look at the past as a brake, as a framework that is fixed. Or, we can look at it as a journey – as a road that leads to someplace new up ahead.
We get to choose which way we want to frame it.
