Looking at accomplishments and experiences brings satisfaction, but mainly for our ego. Reminiscing or bragging only makes us a legend in our own mind.
Doing something today which can make a difference tomorrow brings hope. It energizes us in excitement and anticipation for what might be! Our body, mind, and spirit become beautifully synchronized in such behavior.
There’s a good reason why we don’t have eyes in the back of our head. We are meant to look forward to the future, not behind us at the past.
