What lies within us

Thought For The Day

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

It’s important that we look backwards to realize where we’ve been and how we’ve reached this point in our lives. It’s equally important to look forward to the future. We want to set goals that we hope to attain. What’s most important, however, is the person we are when no one is looking. That is our true self. Hence we need to strengthen ourselves from the inside, out.

  • Look to the past for your foundation.
  • Look to the future and set attainable goals.
  • Look inside to see who you truly are.

Self-Reflection Questions:
I. Do I dwell on the past or learn from it?
II. Do I set goals for the future?
III. Do I seek to improve who I am on the inside?
