Dr. Gordon Livingston was a US author and psychiatrist, who wrote a critically acclaimed book called: Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart, wherein he discusses 30 truths or life lessons. He believed that every individual is in control of his/her destiny, despite their past or current situation. The fourth chapter in his book was called 'The statute of limitations has expired on most of our childhood traumas' (Thomp, 2011).

This is exciting to know, as we all have things in our past which we feel might come back to bite us in the ass one day. So now thanks to Dr Gordon Livingston, there is a greater understanding that no matter what trauma you might have gone through in your past you now have the power to control your destiny and move up and on to greatness!

The power is in your hands! Do not let past traumatic events affect the success you are destined to achieve!
