| 0:00.0 | The gentleness you offer yourself in moments of failure becomes the foundation upon which all future success is built. |
| 0:07.0 | And that is the thought for today. |
| 0:10.0 | Welcome to Seven Good Minutes. I'm Clyde Lee Dennis. Thanks for joining me for what I believe will be seven of the most enriching minutes of your day. |
| 0:27.8 | In today's episode of Seven Good Minutes, we talk about letting go of yesterday with self-kindness and a fresh start. |
| 0:34.1 | Enjoy. There's something profoundly liberating about the moment you realize that yesterday doesn't |
| 0:40.0 | have to define today. Yet so many of us wake up each morning carrying the weight of yesterday's |

| 1:29.3 | this episode, you'll understand how to use self-kindness as a powerful tool for releasing |
| 1:34.2 | yesterday's hold on you, and you'll have practical steps for creating a fresh start that honors |
| 1:39.0 | both your humanity and your potential. The first step in letting go with self-kindness is what I call |
| 1:44.7 | gentle acknowledgement. Instead of pretending yesterday didn't happen or beating yourself up for what went |
| 1:50.3 | wrong, you simply acknowledge what occurred with the same compassion you'd offer a dear friend. |
| 1:55.6 | You might say to yourself, yesterday was difficult. I made some choices I wish I hadn't made. I'm human, and humans make |
