Have you done things in the past that you would like to never remember? Perhaps you harmed people with your words or actions. Perhaps you have made bad financial decisions, which have caused you to live in debt for years. Perhaps you have neglected friendships and/or relationships; much worse, perhaps you have taken advantage of them. Perhaps you neglected a good job, wasted your education, or abused your own body with vices and now you are paying the consequences.
¿Has cometido cosas en tu pasado que te gustaría no volver a recordar? Quizá dañaste a personas con tus palabras o acciones. Quizá invertiste mal tul dinero o el dinero de otros y eso te ha causado que vivas endeudado desde hace años. Quizá has descuidaste tus amistades y/o relaciones o peor todavía – quizá te has aprovechado de ellas. Quizá descuidaste un buen trabajo, no aprovechaste tus estudios o abusaste de tu propio cuerpo con vicios y ahora estás pagando las consecuencias.
In the best of cases, after making mistakes, we reconsider and correct our ways, but in the worst of cases, our foolishness has led us or is about to lead us to ruin. Surely you have heard people say, if I could go back in time I would do things differently. Well, welcome to reality, that is not possible! The successes and mistakes we made in the past are just that, part of the past. I grant that in a very valid and real sense many of us are still paying the price for past mistakes. Unfortunately, it is so and there is no way to escape from it. But in another sense – just as valid and real – our mistakes are part of our present and this does not necessarily have to be a bad thing. We can profit from them!
En el mejor de los casos, después de cometer errores recapacitamos y corregimos el camino, pero en el peor de los casos nuestra necedad nos ha llevado o está a punto de llevarnos a la ruina. Seguramente han escuchado que la gente dice, Si pudiera regresar el tiempo yo haría las cosas diferente. Bueno, bienvenidos a la realidad, ¡eso no sucederá! Los aciertos y errores que cometimos en el pasado son eso, parte del pasado. Concedo que en un sentido muy válido y real muchos de nosotros estamos pagando todavía las consecuencias de errores en el pasado. Lamentablemente es así y no hay manera de escaparnos de eso. En ese sentido nuestros errores son son parte de nuestro presente y esto no tiene que ser necesariamente algo malo ¡Podemos sacarles provecho!
My message today is a message of hope. As horrible as our mistakes may have been, we have one of two options: 1) to consume ourselves in the misery of our past’s remorse or 2) to reconsider, amend and build a better future. That is why I believe that although the consequences of our past mistakes are with us today, we can use them for our benefit. You heard right, we have the power to learn from our mistakes. It is like practicing an emotional and mental Aikido. That is, use the lessons we have learned from our mistakes to our advantage.
Mi mensaje el día de hoy es un mensaje de esperanza. Por horrible que hayan sido nuestros errores; tenemos una de dos opciones: 1) consumirnos en la miseria del remordimiento del pasado o 2) recapacitar, enmendar y construir un mejor futuro. Es por ello que creo que aunque la consecuencia de nuestros errores pasados nos acompañen hoy nosotros podemos utilizarlos para nuestro beneficio. Escucharon bien, ¡nosotros tenemos el poder de aprender de nuestros errores! Es como practicar un Aikido emocional y mental. Es decir, invertir las lecciones que hemos obtenido de nuestros errores para nuestra ventaja.
Life is short, and if you are over 35; you will agree with me that it seems time begins to pass faster than before. We cannot turn back time to change the past or the decisions already made, but we can take advantage of our experiences to live better in the present and perhaps thus achieve a better future. It doesn't matter if you did not invest the money wisely or if you overspent. Today you can still find ways to change your spending habits, pay off your debts, and save and invest wisely next time. If you offended someone today you have the opportunity to apologize and next time think before you speak or do anything. If you neglected your studies when you were young, today you can educate yourself by reading the right books, signing up for evening or weekend courses at your local University, or online.
La vida es corta, y si ya pasas de los 35; estarás de acuerdo conmigo en que el tiempo comienza a pasar más rápido que antes. No podemos regresar el tiempo para cambiar el pasado ni las decisiones ya tomadas, pero si podemos aprovechar nuestras experiencias para vivir mejor en el presente y quizá así lograr mejor futuro. No importa si invertiste mal el dinero o gastaste. Hoy puedes todavía encontrar formas de cambia tus hábitos de consumo, pagar tus deudas, ahorrar e invertir sabiamente la próxima vez. Si ofendiste a alguien hoy tienes la oportunidad de pedir perdón y la próxima vez pensar antes de hablar o hacer algo. Si descuidaste tus estudios cuando eras joven hoy puedes autoeducarte leyendo un libro que te edifique, inscribiéndote a cursos nocturnos o de los fines de semana en tu Universidad local o en línea.
Without a doubt, it is unfortunate when we make mistakes and especially when we harm our loved ones, but there is always time to make amends. Here is a summary of the steps that have worked – although I am still working on it – in my life.
Sin duda alguna, es lamentable cuando cometemos errores y sobre todo cuando dañamos a seres queridos, pero siempre hay tiempo para enmendar. Aquí les dejo un resumen de los pasos que han funcionado – aunque todavía estoy trabajando en ello – en mi vida.

I feel as if we just chatted! 😁 I've watched you quickly grab the "reins" as it were, and head straight for the open road! This is what we love to see at The Terminal... folks being able to showcase their awesome. Owning up to our mistakes is healthy, and yes... positive!
It means we have learned... and of course, that we are alive! Wonder post, my friend!

I post so many questions in The Terminal that I have the same feeling.😁 We are in constant communication. Thank you for the support and patience! 👍
Yes, owning up to our mistakes is healthy, and positive, but the process hurts! 🙈 Nevertheless, that is better than living a life full of lies, denial, and pain. No Sir, better learn and not make the same mistake twice! 😁
Best regards, my friend!

Perhaps you write very close to what I think I want to write myself and want to read. I think you should continue. Yes here a lot of people read only about cryptocurrency, but after all money is not the most important thing in our lives. But such thoughts, in my opinion, are very important! I agree with everything that is written!
Oh, there were a lot of them, just like everyone else, I guess.🤣

Hi @stdd ! My intention is to give something of value through my writing and videos in regard to Personal Development and your encouragement helps me to improve and to keep on writing. Thanks!
I guess everyone writes in their area of expertise. I myself am profiting from a lot of you that write in the area of Cryptocurrency. I'm eager to learn. For example, I don't have any ideas about Tokens! 😂 But I will learn, I'm sure of it.
And tanks for the Tokens! 👍
That's what we need! Well, I certainly do).
🔥I have noticed your interaction in theterminal discord, your questions and willingness to learn, this all reflects in your blog here. Taken the advice and wise nuggets from here.
Thanks for sharing. Bravo Acgalarza😎👏
¡Good morning @queenstarr ! Yes, I'm pretty new in the Hive ecosystem and I find it fascinating. I like it a lot, but I notice there is so much to learn. I'm very thankful for the people in The Terminal - they have been more than nice and helpful to me. I don't know where would I be now without them.
Thanks for your encouraging words!
Have a great Sunday!

I think to forgive (ourselfs) and to be thankful are the keys to a happy life. Without all the mistakes I made I also would have missed out a lot!
Great post :-)
I agree 100% with you, @beeber ! Thank you for the encouragement! 😊
Mistakes happen and it's often unavoidable in life. What we can do is to learn from these mistakes in order to make better choices in the future.
Sadly, some people repeat the same mistake while others live with depressive thoughts because of a mistake they made sometime ago. The steps you listed are top notch.
I came here vis DreeemPort
We have power to be better and amend our ways from past mistakes, so we don´t make such mistake in the present which would in turn affect our future. Though we make mistakes that we regret of today, but the truth is that, mistakes are in a way beneficial to us because we learn from them and work towards being the best version. I came via @dreemport
Very true, very true dear, @princessbusayo 👍
It is good to encounter like-minded people! I found you also through @dreemport Great, isn't it?
Yes, it is. Thank you too 😎
Excellent writeup @acgalarza! It is very valid, although in the area of finances, that may or may not work. I had changed my ways of dealing with my finances, and paid everything off. However, it seems that when you do that, something always comes up lol. Buy a car with a 3 year warranty. On the day after the warranty expires, something major breaks hahaha!
Add to that the taxation, and they do not give people breaks, they take more and more, which makes it more difficult to obtain things later; most just get deeper in debt.
Oh, and one more thing: your formatting is mint perfect, and the selection of the image was dead on!
This post was obtained through Dreemport.
Expiring warranties!? I know exactly what you mean!!! 🤣
Yes, it is true, in life, there are always unforeseen events and against them, we cannot do much. Recalling a famous phrase from the movie Forest Gump - "sh... happens." 😊 The truth is that unforeseen events occur, not only in the area of finances but in all areas of life.
I see it this way. In life, there are things that are under my control and that I can handle for better or for worse. On the other hand, there are things that no matter what I do will always be out of my control. It's not easy, but my advice is always to focus on the former. Being pro-active instead of reactive as much as I can - without being a control freak, of course!
Many thanks for your compliments, @jamerussell - they mean a lot to me. I will never forget that you have helped me and encouraged me to improve towards producing quality content. I'll will keep working!
¡Saludos, amigo!
Absolutely! Our mistakes are opportunities for us to become more of who we were meant to be! Painful lessons that can be redeemable! 🦏 Thank you for this message of hope this morning!
Thank you for sharing with us your reflection! Yes, if we choose correctly our mistakes are wonderful opportunities to grow as human beings. The process hurts, but it's worth it!
Best regards!
This is so true. Most times we tend to live in our mistakes for a very long time thereby shutting ourselves away to see the bright side of life on general and even making us hate our own self which is a very wrong way of going about out mistakes.
This is a beautiful write-up sir, thank you for sharing this with us❣️.
Yes, very often the hardest thing to do is to forgive ourselves for the errors of the past. In those cases talking about it with good friends - even with a professional, depending on the issue - can be beneficial.
Thank you for reading and for your encouragement, @hopestylist Stay strong!
Yeah, that's a good idea.
It's my pleasure reading through friend ❣️.
I feel like mistakes are essential for growth and advancements, you can't do it right, if you haven't been wrong.
Hopefully, we don't do too much wrong to do right, right? 😁 But yes, you are right, we can learn something from our darkest hours!
Hopefully, we don't but if we do, we are still going to be fine.
Correct! 🙂👍
I believe we only have mistakes if we don't learn from them, then they are lessons and life is meant to be lived so we will learn continuously:)
I agree! The biggest mistake is not to learn from them - and I might add - never repeat them again!
aha yes don't repeat them again, very true!!
This is good advice :) We just need to realize that we can grow, so we won't repeat those mistakes.
Yes, to err is human, but should try not to repeat the same mistake. That would be plain stupid.
Thank you for your compliment, @wrestlingdesires ! Best regards!
I feel like a lot of people need to see this post. We make some mistakes and instantly drown in them forgetting that it doesn't necessarily define us and we need to forgive ourselves too.
Good evening, @blezyn !
Some mistakes sting more than others, but if we deal correctly with them, you are right, they don't have to define us. And you are right about not being able to forgive ourselves. That's one of the hardest things to do. But we the help of our friends we have better chances.
Best regards!
I would use #thoughtfuldailypost as a tag aswell
Hi @brittandjosie and thank you for the tip! Should the tag be part of the post itself (for example at the bottom) or at the top in the Tags section? Have a great day!!!
@acgalarza
Good morning! Many ways to incorporate TAGS... Some write them in the actual post... some use them in the TAG selection area... and then you have TAG specific communities. This also depends on what "front-end" you are using; when posting via PeakD you have the option to use 10 TAGS.
So then... my TAGS could be #thoughtfuldailypost, or #hive-109288. Conversely, you could also post in my actual community, and have the 10 TAGS free. Here is my community:
