What has happened is in the past. You will never move on from it if you keep giving all your attention to the pain. Acknowledge it and move ahead once and for all. Stop rummaging on it and shift your focus to something productive.

Don't let one setback define your entire life. Your life is a rich tapestry of personal and professional experiences.
