Grammar fix
move on
continue after a change or difficulty
To stop focusing on something in the past, especially after a problem or loss, and start thinking about the future or doing something new.
Hear it in context
Notice where the phrase sounds natural.

In my opinion, it’s important to move on from mistakes so you can learn and improve in the future.
Fix the pattern
One small grammar move makes it sound right.
Not: It's time to move on from to the next topic.
Say: It's time to move on to the next topic. / to move on from the past.
'Move ON TO' the next thing, or 'move on FROM' something — don't stack both prepositions.
Which sounds natural?
Tap the one a native speaker would say.
'Move on' is the natural way to talk about leaving the past behind; the formal version sounds like a self-help manual.
