If you think you're too far from Allah to return, and your 'past' continues to own you, just remember that Malik ibn Dinar (RA) was an alcoholic, and Omar (RA) was on his way to assassinate the Prophet (pbuh) before they became two of the greatest souls to walk the earth!
Break through the bonds of your past.
Don't let your past determine your destiny.
You can't let your past hold your future hostage.
Use your past successes as a trampoline, not an easy chair.
By honestly acknowledging your past errors, but never damning yourself for them, you can learn to use your past for your own future benefit.
There is no greater mystery than this, that we keep seeking reality though in fact we are reality. We think that there is something hiding reality and that this must be destroyed before reality is gained. How ridiculous! A day will dawn when you will laugh ... at all your past efforts. That which will be the day you laugh is also here and now.
Today is a new day. Your future does not equal your past.
There is more grace in God's heart than there is sin in your past.
You can be aware of your past without being it.
People should learn that you cannot dwell in your past. One who dwells in the past hurts not only himself, but also the people around him.
The mindless junk of your past crowds out opportunities and sets pointless limitations. Move out the junk, and you create room for the rest of your life. Ultimately, it's not just a question of tidying your house; it's a question of liberating your heart.
Whatever your circumstances, whatever your past, the forces that determine your future are nowhere but within your own heart and mind. It is here that the star of your destiny shines.
Some people read palms to tell your future, but I read hands to tell your past. Each scar makes a story worth telling. Each callused palm, each cracked knuckle is a missed punch or years in a factory.
FORGET ABOUT YOUR PAST! MAKE THE REST OF YOUR LIFE THE BEST OF YOUR LIFE!
What delight To back the flying steed, that challenges The wind for speed! - seems native more of air Than earth! - whose burden only lends him fire! - Whose soul, in his task, turns labour into sport; Who makes your pastime his! I sit him now! He takes away my breath! He makes me reel! I touch not earth - I see not - hear not. All Is ecstasy of motion!
True disruption means threatening your existing product line and your past investments. Breakthrough products disrupt current lines of businesses.
You give up your future, lose your dreams, are stained with despair . . . Yet at the same time you shake off your past, fight reality, and never lose your nobility.
Why wish for the privilege of living your past life again? You begin a new one every morning
You think you might know something about yourself or why you act or react in certain ways and then you come to new information and suddenly you see your past and your present in a completely different light.
Your past may not be perfect, but it was perfect for your purpose.
Some things can’t be ignored. You can only conquer your past if you choose to face it.
It’s important not to be embarrassed by your past. The contradictions are part of what we are.
When you are caught in the mind, your past defines you. When you are present, you are beyond definition.
