Moving On From The Past

By Evan Sanders


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

Our past can seem like an inescapable cage that weighs down on us every single day. Constantly we are reminded of prior pain, mistakes we have made, people we have lost, and the list of transgressions goes on and on.

But the real danger of the past is that it can become a type of mental prison that stops us completely from really living today.

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

You have to clean it up. You have to be willing to go back and settle the fights you've had, to make the apologies you need to make, to come to terms with what you have personally done and how things didn't work out so well. While this isn't easy, it's the most important part of the journey in returning back to the present moment. Because honestly, if you don't settle your past, it will continue to pop up time and time again and haunt you and your mind for as long as you permit it.

While repairing the past is great, it gives you access to something even greater - being truly present today. The only chance you have at living a full life is by living in the moment today. You can't go back to the past. Equally, you can't go into the future. You must be living right here and right now, no matter what.

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.

Come back to this moment. Move on from the past. Give yourself the opportunity to connect with how amazing this life is right now and don't be afraid to truly live.

In the end, this moment right now is all you really have.
