“We don’t get a chance to do yesterday over again. The best reason to think about the past is because it gives us the opportunity to improve the future. Because we don’t get tomorrow over again either.” -Seth Godin
“Pain + Reflection = Progress.” -Ray Dalio
“If there is no struggle, there is no progress.” – Frederick Douglass
“Struggle is a never ending process. Freedom is never really won,
you earn it and win it in every generation.” -Coretta Scott King
“With a tear for the dark past, turn we then to the dazzling future, and, veiling our eyes, press forward. The long and weary winter of the race is ended. Its summer has begun. Humanity has burst the chrysalis. The heavens are before it.” -Edward Bellamy, Looking Backward
As painful as it is to reflect on the mistakes you made yesterday, it is the necessary learning and fuel in order to imagine and create your better tomorrow.
Look Back to Look Forward.
P.S. – Happy Juneteenth.
