"Keeping score of old scores and scars, getting even and one-upping, always makes you less than you are"

This quote by Malcolm Forbes speaks with the idea that tracking previous wrongs and trying to get back at with somebody can be damaging to one's character. It suggests that when we concentrate on getting vengeance or attempting to beguile someone, we are not living up to our full capacity. Rather of using our energy to much better ourselves, we are losing it on trying to show something to another person. This quote motivates us to let go of the past and focus on our own growth and advancement. It reminds us that we are capable of so much more than trying to get back at with someone. By releasing our requirement for revenge, we can become the very best version of ourselves.
