Letting go of the past is not easy. We cling to frustration and worry about the future as if the act of fixation somehow gives us power. If a little time has passed and you have not been able to TURN THE PAGE and move on with your life, you need to take a more proactive approach. We often hold onto our pain far beyond its ability to serve us. We replay past mistakes over and over again in our head, allowing feelings of shame and regret to shape our actions in the present. No matter what has happened to you in the past, this book will show you how to take control of your life and make a great future for yourself.

I really enjoyed this book. I love his ability to convey his message and make you think. Making our lives better and not allowing the past to take over our future is something so many of us struggle with. Forgive others, forgive yourself and move on to a future that will be better because of it!
