What takes us back to the past.. are the memories. What brings us forward.. is our dreams.
The only things that should take us back to the past are the memories we made with the people that were in our lives in our pasts. What should bring us forward are our own dreams for our future. In order to set legitimate, and real goals for our future we must in a sense, forget about the past. We can’t let mistakes or regrets from our pasts drive us forward in our lives.
Many of us have heard the saying; we can’t drive forward looking in the rear-view mirror. Meaning it is impossible to focus on progress if we are always looking back at things we wished we have done, or things that we may wish we would have done in different ways. If we try to move forward based off of our regrets, our vision will be clouded, and our forward progress will be greatly limited. Remember to set your dreams upon what you really want for yourself in life, and not what could have been.
