Letting go is not merely about eliminating attachments, but involves shifting focus away from what is unproductive to embrace more fulfilling and positive experiences. Clinging to past regrets can hinder personal growth and well-being; therefore, rather than simply trying to stop dwelling on negatives, it is more effective to crowd them out with love, positivity, and actions that cultivate a thriving present. This approach suggests that instead of merely ceasing conflicts or negative behaviors, individuals should actively engage in constructive and meaningful activities that nurture better relationships and foster inner peace.
