You have to accept that you can not change the past. What you must do now, is look to the future and focus on only that.

It depends person to person. Some people go to their religion eg; confession, or some apologize to others. It varies.

It can be helpful to remember that all of the decisions we make are based on what we think will make us happy in any given moment. Sometimes we get confused and make mistakes, but these mistakes do not make us bad people.

"Running" from your mistakes is not a wise approach. Instead, search for a solution or conclusion to help you get past the mistake, and then learn to leave in in the past, but don't ignore it, acknowledge and do your best to accept it, or it will reoccur later.

You learn from your past mistakes. As much as it hurts to think about your mistake. You have changed.

Everyone makes mistakes, and everyone has a past. Remind yourself that it's in the past, and that it's okay. If you can, try to get some closure. For example, if you did something bad to someone, get there forgiveness. Or if you told a lie, come clean. It will make it much easier to forgive yourself when your conscience is clean.
