Forgive Yourself
We all have regrets about things we wish we’d done differently. But beating yourself up doesn’t change the past. What it does do is keep you stuck.
Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. It means acknowledging your humanity, learning the lesson, and choosing peace. Say this: “I did the best I could with what I knew at the time.” And mean it.
You don’t need to be perfect to be worthy of love or growth. Let yourself off the hook. You deserve to heal. Self-forgiveness isn’t letting yourself off easy—it’s setting yourself free.

A retired Air Force Master Sergeant, Mike used to lay in bed at night and worry about what would happen if his plant closed or found himself without a job. One day his plant closed. Rather than panic and hysteria (OK, maybe a little) Mike found himself carried away on the adventure of his life. Mike started with the best job he ever had working at Home Depot. He spent 8 years working with job seekers at a local workforce center, helping them to find employment. He then started his own company developing courses, writing books and urging others to follow their own paths into the future.
Mike holds a Master of Arts in Adult Education and Training and a Bachelor of Business Management, earned through the University of Phoenix and an AAS degree in Electronics Systems Technology from the Community College of the Air Force. Mike is a member of the Delta Mu Delta Business Honor Society.
