"The past is where you learned the lesson"

The past can teach us important lessons in life. That is to be more strong and wise in life's challenges. I'm, for one, doing my best to learned from those past mistakes, move on and try not to commit the same mistakes over and over again. Thanks

Absolutely right... Every person commits some mistake at one point of time or another. It is so because life doesn't come with guidelines. People who learn lesson from their past and determine not to repeat them in future are good learners. Realization of mistake is very important, but equally important is the wisdom to not repeat it in future. Whenever I do something wrong and realize it, I make sure not to repeat it. Also there are things which I have learnt from other people's experience and I take care not to commit those mistakes myself.

Yes, our past is always related to our present and future. Without our past experiences, whether good or bad, we can't look forward to our future. We always get our confidence from the mistakes and achievements we've made. We are ready to face our future because of our past. However, there are some experiences that we'd like to bury in the past and wouldn't want to be remembered. LOL. Happy mylotting.

I agree that our past experiences teach us to deal better with our present and hopefully with our future. If fact I think that the only place where we can apply lessons is in our present as we dom`t know what our future will bring.

Hello prashu! I often think about my mistakes too. I think mistakes which we did in our past help us to do right things in our present and be confident about the future! The past is an experience and every experience (good or bad ) helps us to make our life much better. As for me I don't regret about anything I did in the past. It made me stronger and more careful!!!

Indeed. Just like the old saying, experience is the best teacher. At first, we really hate bumps in our life but as time pass by, it'll be one good lesson to us. Every bumps on our journey will only mold us to be a better person, so let's not give up when they come. Optimism will help us on those events.

Hi prashu, We have all made mistakes but it's important that we forgive ourselves and move on. Many of us have a more difficult time forgiving ourselves than we do forgiving others but it should not be that way. As you say, learn from the past but I would apply the lesson today because that is how we create a better future. Blessings.

I do agree with that... The past should be the time that you learn the lesson and you should never repeat it in the future, or it'll just be a worthless lesson if you do the same mistake over and over again.

prashu: good point. we always learn from past experience. some experience will make us wise. But in a few cases we cannot undo easily. For example joining a company -- if we commit error in taking a wrong company and come out of it without much blame on our part fine. otherwise it may spoil our reputation. similarly choosing your life partner--again this depends on luck to some extent -- if we make a wrong decision life will be spoilt and rectifying that is very tough. I know many boys become 'devadas" after falling in love and making a wrong choice. be careful. select good friends.

Yes i feel that whatever has happened in the past should be left as it is. We should think of a new beginning and how to make our future safe and secure. Thinking about the past in some cases might cheer you up but in some cases it might come hard. What say?

Experience is the best teacher! That perfectly states that, everything you are in right now success or good things was because you learn many things from your past experience, whether it is good or bad. Yes, there is no body perfect in the world as everyone commits mistakes but we can also learn with other people experience and serve it as a prevention for any unpleasant circumstances.

Hi friend, you are right, we can learn a lot of things from our past,. our past lessons are our experience in our life, we can forget about past, but never forget the lessons you learned from the past, they are your guides

The saying 'you can't put a wise head on young shoulders' is true and one that older people quote, often about their children. Of course we are sorry that we must sometimes watch young people make the same mistakes as we did, but we didn't listen to our parents and they don't listen to us. Well not very often. However the good side is that a lesson learned the hard way is not easily forgotten.

there is no such a person who is perfect,if you want to grow up,you must make some mistakes.The key to it is that we must learn from the mistakes,when you meet with the same situations,you can void it.

The past is what has made you to become what you are now and what you will become in the future. The mistakes you have made serve as pillars of strength for you to hold on to and become a much better person.

I couldn't agree more and you are right that we can learn from the past no matter it is good or bad experience, that's the lesson that everybody should take during their personal development. And this sentence definitely suitable for people to realize.

Hi, You are right. We can learn from our past mistakes how to tackle the problems today for the betterment of future. We cannot change our past but we should not make the mistake again which is done in the past,

Mistakes will make us learn and be more mature. This teaches us a lesson that will make us a better person,choose the right directions and not to make the same mistakes again. We should learn from every experience that we encounter for us to have a better life.

hi i think you are right.everybody will make mistakes and the mistakes can give us the most precious treasure.we learn from them and correct them.that is the power let us advance

Well I hope everyone in this world would really learn a lesson if they did something good or bad from the past. Past makes us strong and stay in the future. :)
