The inspiration for this print comes from two different six-year olds. Oneday my six-year old granddaughter saw her parents arguing and pointing fingers at each other. calmly said, "Don't live in the past!" The other child had by mistake hit his grandfather while swinging a toy around. The grandfather told him to be more careful before he starts swinging things around. The next day when the grandfather tried to remind him in an effort to reinforce the lesson, the child calmly said, "That was yesterday. Past is past!" How true! Instead of living in the present moment, we spend much of our time living either in the memories of the past or living in the imagined future.

Knowing where one wants to go, setting the goal and focusing on it are important in order to succeed. If one can eliminate distractions and stay focused on a single goal, success is not hard to attain. Sometimes it takes a young six-year old to remind us of this. It is based on a true story.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
