"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the
strong." --Mahatma Gandhi
Leaders forgive.
They see the possibility of the future
They understand human imperfection.
"In taking revenge, a man is but even with his enemy; but in passing
it over, he is superior." --Sir Francis Bacon
10 SECOND REALITY CHECK
How willing are you to forgive?
Are you carrying any grudges?
How long does it take you to forgive?
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Carrying grudges keeps you from moving forward
People change
Forgiving releases negative energy
Forgiving makes you strong
"Life is an adventure in forgiveness." --Norman Cousins
SO, WHAT WILL YOU DO DIFFERENTLY
Think of anyone or anything you haven't forgiven.
Then, just DO it.
Do it now.
You'll be amazed at how you feel...
"One thing you will probably remember well is any time you forgive
and forget." --Franklin P. Jones
