Practice Forgiveness

Bill FitzPatrick - Founder of the "American Success Institute".

Action Principle No.42>> Practice Forgiveness, Anger, hatred, bitterness, resentments and thoughts of revenge are heavy weights that slow a person down. Allowed to fester, these negative feelings can consume increasingly larger portions of your life. LIberate yourself. Let it go. The forgiving person is always stronger. Be like the rock in the stream and let the thoughts of revenge flow by you.
As a person of action, improving yourself and helping others, you will make lots of mistakes. You will do foolish things. Learn the lesson.
You practice forgiveness for yourself. Consider those whom you may have offended or injured and ask for their forgiveness. Can you say, "I'm sorry and I apologize if I offended you."? If you ask and your request is rejected, you have lightened your burden in trying. Continue to encourage efforts at reconciliation.
