We all make mistakes knowingly or unknowingly. But a few mistakes that I made in the past still haunt me. How do I overcome those?

First accept that there is no returning to how things were before the mistake. This is key to moving on.
Then, if your mistake hurt others, apologise to them. Don’t expect forgiveness, remember there is no going back to how things were. Just know you have done what you could to make things right.
Now reflect on the impact it had on your life and what you can do about it, and by this I do not mean what happened, I mean how it affected you: failef an exam? The solution might not be to retake the exam.
Finally understand that it is now behind you, and focus on how not to repeat it in the future, and what you can do to mitigate the impact it had on you or others.
