Until we find the blessing or the gift of our wound, we never resolve it.

And that is the quote of the day.

Welcome back to the quote of the day show.

I'm your host Sean Crox and a Sean Crox and dot com.

Today's featured speaker is Debbie Ford, who was the author of one of my favorite books of all time,

The Dark Side of the light chasers are highly recommended.

And today Debbie is showing us how to heal from our past, how to heal from our wounds.

You know, Dr. Z martini, he always talks about how there is a polarity in everything for every negative.

There's a positive.

And Tony Robbins always talks about where we focus our attention is where our energy flows.

So what happens is this with the wounds you've experienced in life, we focus our attention on the negative aspects of them.

How they've heard us, how they've heard other people, how they've hindered us, how they've just held us back from living the life that we want.

But sell them, do we ask the question as to how that experience, how that wound has become a positive force in our lives?

Yes, I said a positive force in our lives.

How has that wound been a blessing?

How has that wound been a gift?

Because once you find that gift, once you claim that gift, the way you see the wound, the way you see the world,

the way you see yourself completely changes and the power that that wound had over you completely disappears.

Here's Debbie.

In order for us to move in and out of our story effortlessly, we must make peace with the past.

Making peace with our past means really going in and looking to see what's unhealed inside of me, what are the lumps in my recipe,

what from my past am I still holding on to, where there's pain or anger or regret.
