Been hurt by someone? Most of us have been. Who doesn’t have some deep-seated wound that they’re still nursing?
And what about anger? Don’t you have at least a wee bit of lingering anger over those hurts? Completely normal.
But do you let that lingering anger and pain get the best of you? Do you let it affect who you are and how you look at life? Do you let it hold you back?
How unceremoniously we hand over our power to those who have hurt us. In essence, letting them change who we are and what we’re capable of.
It’s hard to be awesome with all of that baggage littering your life.
Let’s be honest…most people have some ugliness in their past that they need to deal with. Most of us are dysfunctional in some way or another. And some people have some really heavy shit. As the Chinese say, some people eat bitter.
I’m not saying it’s easy to release all of those demons. I’m saying that to be awesome you have to set them free. It’s the only way you will grow and thrive as an individual.
Truly, the best revenge is living a good and productive life.
You have a choice. We all have a choice. We can sit around and lick our wounds, feeling sad about how life or love has passed us by. Or we can say, “To hell with it!” and get on with our awesome lives.
So get ahead and get your quiet revenge by leaving your hurts behind and being awesome!
