Never backward, forward only.

DON'T FIGHT BACK, FIGHT FORWARD.

Fighting back does not restore whatever has been damaged, it only deprives us of valuable time that would have been used in fighting forward towards our desires and goals. It is of utmost importance to focus on the future instead of dwelling on the past. Rather than getting caught up in the pain or resentment of an injustice or setback that we have faced in the past, we can choose to encourages ourselves to channel that energy into productive and positive action.

Moving forward requires courage, resilience, and perseverance. Instead of fighting back against a wrong that has already been done, fighting forward is a more fruitful and rewarding step to take towards the achievement and realisation of your goals and towards a better future. This is especially relevant in situations where it might be difficult or impossible to undo the wrong that has been done.

Fighting forward prioritizes progress over revenge, it urges us to look forward into the future and what it holds, rather than looking backward at the pain. While it may be tempting to retaliate or seek revenge against individuals or circumstances that have caused us hurt or harm, the mindset to fight forward reminds us to instead focus on achieving our own success, ascending the ladder to greatness, and creating positive change in the world. 

Roy T. Bennett once said, “When the going gets tough, put one foot in front of the other and just keep going. Don’t give up.” Giving up is never an option in the fight for success. You can rise above the adversity that stare you in the face, you just have to focus on your goals, and push forward towards a better future. We must encourage ourselves and others to be optimistic and proactive, rather than reactive in the way we approach challenges and obstacles in life. On this journey to the future we don't quit, we don't look back, we only fight forward.
