If it's not important, let it go - the difference between knowledge and wisdom
Too many people manage to hold onto grudges for years - where does that actually get them? Stuck in the past and unable to move on with their own life, that's where! And in the meanwhile, the person they are holding the grudge against gets on with their own life, completely unaware that something they may have done years ago is still ruling someone else's life.
So what can we learn from this? That there is no point in harboring ill feeling to anyone because as long as that feeling is held onto, you will not be able to move forward. No-one wants, or needs, to be stuck in the past in a never-ending 'groundhog day'.
Make a vow to learn something new every day and spread a little happiness along the way by sharing your new-found knowledge with others who would benefit.
Have the wisdom to learn when it's for the best to let things go - for example, have you been wondering why something on your website isn't working, or trying to 'flog a dead horse' with an idea that you know, deep in your heart, is not going to work?
Learn to let go, move forward and embrace new ideas and ways of doing things. Allow others to help you on your way and never be too proud to accept that offer of help. That is what will help you to progress with your business and your life in general.
Just a short post for today, but an idea which I have found has helped me when I've felt 'stuck' in a bad place.
Happy Monday fellow WA Entrepreneurs.
Jude.

Jude what you said is so true. I can readily admit to, earlier in my life, holding grudges against selfish people who I know tried to use me in the past. I realize now that if anything it was MY fault. Only you have the ability to look out for your own self by not allowing others to take advantage of you. "Letting it go", getting rid of those grudges is the best thing that one can do for him/herself in situations similar to what you address in your great blog.
I believe that gaining wisdom through life's lessons and then applying it to make yourself a better human being is one of the greatest things that one can do for him/herself!
Thank you again Jude for your intelligent and well-articulated thoughts!

Good advice Jude. There is no point in holding a grudge or flogging a dead horse.
