It is often in our reflecting back that we are really able to see the future path more clearly. Knowing where we have been can be a great benefit for our lives moving forward. We can’t ever go back, but learning from the personal experiences of the past is one of our most valuable resources we have at our disposal!

• This week marks the one year mark since the world began to shut down and lose its mind about all sorts of stuff.
• I am all about keeping a forward focus as we define what our end destination is so that we stay on the path we desire
• At certain points however, I am finding it is very useful to know where we have been as we move forward.
• Understanding that we can’t ever go back and we really don't’ need to spend any mental or emotional energy in regret or wondering “what if?”
• If we keep a proper perspective on the past in order to learn from it and the past of others then this can be one of the most valuable resources at our disposal!
• One of the most valuable lessons we gain from looking back might be the insight into our own patterns in ourselves. We start to see why we struggle in the same ways over and over again by looking back
• We also start to see if our path up to this point has led us to a place we really want to be or not, which in turn can become a sending off point for the future.
• As each individual takes the time to look back they might find some key checkpoints or decision points that have shaped us for the good or bad.
• So pause for a moment and take a look back, look with the eyes to see what we might not want to see, look for things to learn, patterns to be found, look back to know how to move forward!
• When you do this you might be surprised, surprised that you are exactly where you want to be, or surprised that you are not anywhere you thought you would ever be.
