Why Looking Back Can Be A Good Thing

We often hear the saying, “move on and don’t look back”, but looking back can actually be a good thing. Why so? When you look back on your past you can have an in-depth reflection of yourself. Instead of using it to look back on the things you’ve left behind, use it as a tool to help you learn or introspect.

When you take a look back on yourself, focus on how far you have come. This will motivate you to go further in life. Next, focus on the lessons you have learnt. If you have experienced a failure or a heartbreak, ask yourself what have you learnt from it? The only way to move forward is to learn from past mistakes.

When you are having a bad day, looking back on your past can also help make things 
better. Think about the good times you have had in the past. Reminiscing good memories can help you forget about the problems you are facing. You can also use it as a reminder. Remind yourself of the tough times you have had in the past and how you overcame it. This will indirectly make you feel better as you will realise that you have overcame problems before, so you can definitely overcome your problems in the present.
