re: How do you stop beating yourself up over past mistakes?

Accept that you aren't perfect and forgive yourself. Come to a personal realization that beating yourself up over past mistakes is counter productive and a bad decision in itself.
Commit to bettering yourself with the understanding you will fail horribly and often along the way.

How do you stop beating yourself up
I don't have time to beat myself up because I'm too busy beating myself off.

Time heals all things and can even put some rose tint on what you perceive as mistakes right now. Kind of fun to laugh at how dumb you were at certain times in your life.
If you have obsessive thinking patterns, try breathing exercises anytime you start to enter the loop. Also, highly recommend Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. Ton of wisdom in that book regarding healthy mental and spiritual habits and perspectives.

Well since this is an apolitical board there is a party you shouldn't join because their core value is beating yourself up over past mistakes you had no part in whatsoever

You're playing a football game in the 3rd quarter. Don't kick yourself over a play you made in the first quarter. Still a lot of ball to be played and plenty of time to make up for it, but you're going to mess up the current play if you keep dwelling on the past. Get back in the game kid.

This is excellent advice. Forgive yourself, be kind to yourself, and get back to focusing on the things that you can control. You can't change the past. Just try to be a better version of the person that you were yesterday.

Would you forgive another person you truly loved for some of your perceived mistakes?
Love yourself and learn self-compassion. Stop thinking of yourself as perfect. You were extremely far from perfect before your "mistake" that you're self loathing over.

Every minute spent dwelling on past mistakes is a minute less that you have to improve yourself and your future.

How boring would life be if you made nothing but good decisions?!
Making poor decisions and recovering from them is how you end up as a "well rounded" and "experienced" old man.
I have a few tough lessons that kicked my arse, but they'll be solid conversation topics in the future.

Stop doing that. "Mistakes" are as important a step success. in forming who you'll become.

Have you tried narcissistic sociopathy? I hear that works great.

I feel you man. That is my biggest downfall, I am going thru it right now choosing between 2 women.
I think its part of being a male. Stubborn pride. For me anyway.

You place it in the hands of Christ. You admit that even if you could, you likely wouldn't change a thing as ultimately you will be a better person for it. Hurts today. Look forward to tomorrow. Your struggles will help someone else succeed. You're experiencing it for THEM. Best of luck.
