Thomas Slatin Quote On Growth
In order to grow, one must first learn how to let go of the past, and only hold onto those memories which served as the foundation of the people we are today, for as time goes by, one gets better equipped at telling the difference between the two.

I do really agree with you. Holding on to past memories that are no good have a way of pulling one back and this limits ones progress.

We will never learn how to grow if we keep dwelling in the past. The past is done and must not be looked back.

While I do agree with learning but to me my past is as important as my now. Without the past I would not be here today. Learn but never forget.

I think that in order to grow, we must all accept that what happened in the past can not be undone. That we must first learn the lessons of the past in order to move on.

I feel that so as to develop, we should all acknowledge that what occurred in the past can not be fixed. That we should initially gain proficiency with the exercises of the past so as to proceed onward.

We should also know that the past are to make us better in all spheres of life. It shouldn’t draw us back or set out limits. Let go, be wiser and grow above limits
