when we are still in dream and thinking to happen something good then we can not stop looking back.so we should do something work which make a contact with our present. thats way we can look forward.

Think of how far you've come, even if its not that far, it's still a step forward. And then think about where you want to end up. Use the past as the driving force that is taking you to your destination

Our history is what shapes us, but it is important to remember that we cannot change our past no matter how badly we might want to--we can only learn from it. So when you begin to feel yourself looking back, take a deep breath and center yourself and focus on the moment that you are in. Try taking 5 deep breaths and say to yourself: "I am in the here and now and I can only control what happens to me now." Repeat that as many times as you need to, to remind yourself that you are only able to move forward in life.

It is always good to accept our past is indeed the past. Come in terms with things we did well and those we regret doing. But we always have to view the future as an opportunity to make things even better and correct mistakes.

I's always good to look back on past because mistakes were lessons and you gained experience. Use what you learned to pave a way forward. You have all the courage in the world you just need to find it.

Live in the present, not the past or even the future. If you live in the life you have now, the ride to the future will only be more enjoyable :)

It takes time, surely. In my expirience, it takes confidence in yourself to move forward, literally and figuratively. In public, keep your head high and no one will question your self esteem, and if you love yourself it's so much easier to work to move on.

You just need to focus on yourself and the goodness in you. There are always things you can do to reassure you are still a good person and good things are in store for you. Start up a new hobby or something you know you love to do and it distracts you from thinking about your past.

There would be a phase where you would feel that a string is pulling you backward but it's you who has to move forward and break the string which is holding you back

I use the analogy of driving a car. We do not drive backwards by looking in the rear view mirror to get to our destination. We must look forward to get to our destination. We also must think of ways to fix what we are unhappy about. Creating goals and accomplishing them always makes a person feel successful. Brainstorming about things you want to do is always fun. Moving forward also opens up opportunities for many other positive things to come. Accomplishing goals proves that we can put one foot in front of the other and move on.
