It's Okay to Look Back Sometimes
from Embrace It All! Hosted by Angela Adams
Yesterday I saw a sign that read, “Don’t look back. You’re not going that way”. This has become a very popular sentiment, especially when it comes to our mental health and well being. But, I don’t fully agree with this idea of not looking back. I think there can be real value when we look back. In this short and sweet episode I will explain the three different lenses that we most commonly look through when we "look back". The lens of regret and shame The lens of nostalgia The lens of accomplishment and growth I believe that there is a very real difference when we look back and stay in that space, vs. looking back to see where we've been. I will share a personal example that shed some light on this for me just recently. I do believe that sometimes looking back can actually give us the momentum to keep moving forward.
