Letting Go Off The Past

• Letting go off the past can be very tough,
  whether its someone's bad behavior, feelings,
  relationships or thoughts. Each day proffer a new
  chance to start over and go on from our past,
  however, Still we might know and understand it
  totally, successfully doing it is extremely tough
  in practice. People get stuck in a chain of
  unhappiness and anger, forever looking reverse,
  while missing out on how good their lives can be
  if they just learn how to let go of the past. In
  fact, here are skills that can be learned that
  can help us learn to forgive, let go and be
  happy.

• 1. Considerate your past - Try looking reverse at
  your past as an impartial viewer. Learn to know
  that you are not your past. Remember that the
  people and situation of your past created
  experience of you, but they did not create you.
  This can help you break the chain of
  self-destructive behavior.

2. Meditate - Meditation is action. Our mind is
much harder to strengthen than our body. Our
lives are busy and fast paced, filled with
external noise and distractions. Clarity comes
from quiet. Meditation allows for reflection and
helps us be tolerant to finally being able to let
go of what has hurt us.   3. Discontinue living
in the past - By feeling a past happening you are
harming yourself and killing your chance of
moving on and living a cheerful life. Letting go
of those feeling allows you to embrace new chance
to move forward to new things.   4. Let go of
Anxiety - One aspect of letting go of the past is
anxiety. We worry repeating past mistakes.
Letting go of this anxiety will open you up to
fresh possibilities and allow you to learn from
your mistakes while letting go of the past. This
helps you focus on the positives in your life.

5. Learn something new - Learning a new skill
that can help you get future goals helps set you
on the right way to letting go of your past by
showing you more prospects and chances.   6. Be
flexible - Once you are sure what your goals are,
dont think too much about the results. Be
flexible in your expectations. Allowing things to
play out as they will can remove anxiety and
permit you to see other potential opportunities
in life.   I remember one of my favorite quotes
from Lama Surya Das  Forgiveness means letting
go of the hope for a better past.
