Motto for life

We all have Motto that we live by. They can change as we change or they can stay constant because they keep us going to where we hope to be. The definition of motto is a short sentence or phrase chosen as encapsulating the beliefs or ideals guiding an individual, family, or institution. 
I like all the different mottos because they can sort of tell you where the person is or has been within their life. I have chosen many different mottos in my path to where I am now and I have found one that has stuck with me for a few years now. 
That was then, this is now.
You know we have all struggled and fallen deeper than we ever wanted to admit. We have done things that make our skin crawl and we try to tuck away. There are always going to be parts of you that will keep churning up.
That was then, this is now.
I really like this because it's like, you know, this is the time to shine and grow. I can't stay back there trying to fix something because it will always be back then. It will never catch up and progress forward to the now.
That was then, this is now. 
We need to be present in the here and now. Remember what happened and why things need to change. 
My motto tells to me to be fearless and to inspire. To push for change and never let anything hold me back. To continually grow and experience everything that I possibly can.
That was then, this is now.
That used to be me but I have changed.

What is your motto for life and how has it encouraged you and your personality?
Always,
-Jac
