What’s done

When you slip up, when you disappoint yourself, make note of it and vow to do better. But don’t be too hard on yourself.

There are benefits that come from being firm about exercising control over your behavior going forward. But there’s nothing to be gained by wallowing in guilt about what’s already been done or not done.

Give yourself a break. Get over it, and take the opportunity to move into a positive frame of mind.

What’s done is done, and you’ve learned from it. So put the lesson to good use.

Look forward and consider all the good you can do. Step forward and take sober, measured, effective actions.

Transform the weight of regret into the energy of determination. Point that energy in a positive, meaningful direction, and get busy doing something great.
