Stop Dwelling In The Past!

in #life6 years ago

The past, It haunts our entire lives, It's often influencing our future choices, But do we give it too much power?
Should we let it be such a big part of our lives?

Learn From Your Mistakes, Move On!

We all make mistakes, and We make big ones, And small ones. It's so stupid how we are often taught that we are somehow horrible people for making mistakes. Or that mistakes are “not normal.”

It's essential for us to use our past to not make the same mistakes. But to also stop dwelling on them. It does nothing for us. We have to move on at some point. The faster we understand the lesson we need to learn and move on. The better it is.

It Slows Us Down

We can obsess over that stupid thing we said, Over and over. For years and years. But it will never get us anywhere. It actually will slow us down in the long run, Making it harder for us to achieve the things that we want to meet.

It Can Be Fixed Or Changed

NO, Time travel isn't a thing... yet. As far as I'm aware. But many things in life are impermanent. Things you said, Can be apologized for. And often things you did can be undone. Or opportunities similar to the one you lost, Can be found. At least a similar one.

In most aspects, the past doesn't have to fully determine your future, Because you can find a way to move forward despite the challenges.
Besides dwelling, obsessing and overthinking won't change things for you either. Your best bet in that situation is looking for an option to fix the issue, Or by merely accepting the fact things are the way you are, and you have to live.

observing other people's lives is a great eye opener too.

this was really nice kaylin :) i could relate so much and actually this was the perfect time to read this. I tend to get super caught up in my mistakes and let it ruin my present. It's hard to move on sometimes but necessary. thankyou for the wonderful synchronicity . nice to see you here again.

Getting stuck in the past will really not bring you anywhere good in life. Good reminder to never let the past haunt you forever.

I try not to think back too much on past mistakes except to learn from, but not let it overcome me. The main thing I enjoy thinking back to is when I was a kid and all those fun times, when things were simpler and more enjoyable. I wish I could make a VR game for myself to implement scenarios and relive it haha.

You have to leave the past behind, you just have to take it to the present, but to witness what you should not do, and that from your present to learn from your past mistakes to improve things, learn, every day we are learning something new, and that is a blessing for our lives. Very good post, blessings.

many people get lost in their past, they don't change with the future. We can remember the past, and use that to go forward. The past can't be changed, and that is a fact! :) As to mistakes, I've been known to make a few, and i'm sure I'll make more, it's a learning process! :)
