Finding it hard to get over your past n let it go??
So, How to Deal With Your Mistakes and Move On ???
Letting go of your past – whether it's quitting an addictive relationship or grieving a death – can be one of the hardest things you'll ever do. In life, there's many things that we have to learn to let go. We have to let go of situations, things, memories, people and even ourselves. It's not easy, but there are practical ways to let go of your past and move on. Before you delve into letting go and saying good-bye to your past, however, you may need to face your memories and experiences. If you're dealing with your mistakes, you'll certainly have to accept responsibility for your actions.
Even if it was a painful relationship and you had to let go of your past for your own sanity, you still may struggle with saying good-bye.It is difficult for us in so many ways and on so many levels. Yet life calls upon us to do it, over and over again. Letting go is part of our growth process. We cannot move on to the new while continuing to cling to the old.It's easy to form an attachment to people and things. When you've formed an attachment to people and things, it can be a very painful experience and feeling when you realized that it's time to let go. Even the mere thought of not having that person or thing in your life just squeezes your heart in pain.
There come times, in the context of love , when we must learn to let go. For some of us, we must let go of a past relationship. Maybe the relationship was not meant to be, perhaps it was hurtful to us, or perhaps it was hindering the personal or spiritual growth of one or both partners. In this case, even when there may still be feelings of passion, or attraction, or just the comfort of the familiar, we must be strong in letting go of something that is unhealthy for us. … Perhaps we have no problem leaving the person behind, but we continue to harbor animosity. In this case, we need to let go of the anger: holding onto anger does not serve us - and it might even serve to create problems in our physical health or emotional well-being. … In the realm of relationships, some of us need to let go of unrealistic expectations. Whether we have idealized a past relationship, some of us need to let go of the myth of the perfect lover: the fantasy of a relationship that requires no work and just brings us "happily ever after." By letting go, I am not implying "to forget" or "to ignore." By all means, we should carry with us the happy memories and the lessons we have learned from our past relationships. However, we need to let go in the sense of releasing emotional baggage we may be carrying around with us, so that we may be open to, and present for, a new relationship. Letting go of your past means:
* forgiving yourself for your mistakes.
* being aware of your thoughts
* trusting the nature of time
* making new connections with people
* seeking balance in your life
* exploring a new world
