What never happened will never change."(from "Oh, Leonardo")

About This Quote

People often say that the past cannot be changed and that all we can do is learn from it. However, that is not exactly true. Even though we cannot change the past, we can choose to ignore it and focus only on the present. We can choose to use our past experiences to help us succeed in the future.

It is true that we cannot change the past, but it is also true that we cannot change what has already happened. You can’t change what happened in your past, so why dwell on it? Instead, try to learn from your mistakes and turn them into strengths for your future.
