There’s a good quote that reads, “You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.” This is such a true statement but one that many people seem to ignore. Sometimes it might seem like you are continually going through the same life lessons but that is because you have not successfully closed that particular chapter in life. Life will continue to show you the same outcome if you don’t make the choice to change your actions or mindset along with closing older chapters in life.

In order to continue your journey towards spiritual growth, that requires you to do the inner work and to find ways to challenge yourself rather than staying in your comfort zone which means that you need to open up your mind to new opportunities and challenges. Otherwise you are going to coast through life on the same page where you could be writing the next great chapter of your life. It is important to take the time to actually learn from your past so that you can prepare for a bigger and brighter future. Remember that some of the obstacles, life lessons, and older chapters of life were needed in order to progress and move forward to something even better than you ever thought was possible. Don’t ever let a bad chapter in life hinder you from moving onto something better! Trust me, life has a funny way of surprising you when you least expect it which requires you to be receptive enough to receive what life has to offer you.
