Moving On From The Past

By Evan Sanders


Sometimes life can feel like you're stuck in concrete.

Our past is a place that can, at times, ruin our ability to enjoy the present moment. It can rip you back into events, emotions, thoughts, and situations that can be incredibly painful at times. It can define your entire life if you let it.

The past at times can become this metaphorical prison cell that deters us from living in the present and truly being able to create a better future for ourselves.

What can you really do to move on from the past?

Repair it all. Repair everything that makes you cringe when you think about it. Will going back to the past be incredibly hard at times? Yes, of course. But going back into those events and situations where you didn't exactly handle yourself in the best ways can actually bring great peace to your life if you take responsibility for what you've done.

But the most beneficial aspect of cleaning up your past is that you give yourself a fresh slate to work on in this moment. When you aren't controlled by situations and events that have taken place previously, you can really show up in this moment and be whoever you want to be. Isn't that powerful? Wouldn't that be ideal?

While it's hard to do this, the journey into the past to repair everything is worth it. It makes you a strong person to be able to admit your mistakes and defeats and take ownership for them. It makes you something greater than you've ever been before.

So be brave and come back to this moment. Come back to being right here and right now. Give yourself the chance to really live for once.

After all, this moment is all you really have.
