“People make mistakes. As often as not, the mistakes aren't deliberate or personal.
If you want to, you can let go of any feelings of resentment, of regret, of anger. You could let all these things get you down, fizzle away internally like some emotional acid making you ill and resentful and stuck. Try instead to let them go, embrace them as character forming and in general as positive rather than negative.
There is no going back, only forwards. Make it a motto for life - keep moving forwards.”

“Rule 3
Accept what us done is done
What is done is done and you need to just get on with things.”
― Richard Templar, The Rules of Life: A personal code for living a better, happier, more successful kind of life

“The Rule really is: be kind to yourself when you do muck things up. Be forgiving and accept that it's all part of that growing older but no wiser routine.
Looking back, we can always see the mistakes we made, but we fail to see the ones looming up.
The older you get, the more areas you've covered to make mistakes in.
As long as we look back and see where we went wrong and resolve not to repeat such mistakes, there is little else we need to do.
Remember that any Rules that apply to you also apply to everyone around you. Once you accept this, you'll be more forgiving and kinder towards yourself and others.
Time does heal and things do get better as you get older. After all, the more mistakes you've made, the less likely that you'll come up with new ones. The best thing is that if you get a lot of your mistakes over and done with early on in life, there will be less to learn the hard way later on. And that's what youth is all about, a chance to make all the mistakes you can and get them out of the way.”

“Rule 1
Keep it under your hat
Don't preach, propagate or try to convert.
Just get on with it, do it quietly and go about your daily life happily and smugly without having to tell anyone anything.”
