“Get out of the past by visualizing the wake of a boat as a symbol of the past. The wake is not driving the boat, it is merely the trail that is being left behind. If you try this and hear a critical voice almost nagging you to get on with it, know that this is ego chatter. Surrendering means surrendering to what is, not to what ego wants it to be right now or what ego thinks it should have been in the past. Know that the past cannot drive you in this Now, and that past needn’t be held responsible for the boat’s problems of today.”
Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, in “Your Sacred Self”
