Your Daily Writing Habit - Episode 1050: "Do not dwell on the past unless you can learn from it..."

"You reflect to review the past, take stock of the present, and build a better future. The learning you acquire from reflecting on your experiences and those of others will depend on your willingness to ask yourself tough questions and to stick around for the uncomfortable answers. Here you must exercise caution. Do not dwell on the past unless you can learn from it. Do not look back to hurt yourself or others. The point is to use the past in ways that are beneficial to you." -P.M. Forni Breaking apart this quote, especially for memoir authors.
