The Good Old Days…

01 The Good Old Days...

It’s funny how we tend to enjoy clinging onto the past, and those “good ole days”…  It assumes that the present and perceived future won’t be bringing the same kind of fun and happiness. 

I’m as guilty as the next person in this regard, but a recent blog post by Seth Godin made me re-evaluate. 

Why do we like to look backwards with such fondness?  Is it because we romanticise what has happened, so we remember primarily the good things? 

While that’s a good trait to have, it can also be very destructive, as we try to mould our future to match those apparent past happinesses. 

Live in the now, and aim high, dream big, and allow the future just unfold…
