Legs off the brakes
LOOK BACK, BUT MOVE FORWARD
Life is a winding road, full of twists, turns, and the occasional pothole that sends you flying. We have all been there, staring in the rearview mirror at the mistakes, the heartbreaks, the "what ifs" that linger like shadows. Looking back is not about getting stuck, it is about gathering fuel for the miles ahead. It is about reflecting without regret, learning without lingering. As we stand on the threshold of a new year we can look back, but move forward.
Every success story always has a backstory riddled with failures. Thomas Edison didn't invent the lightbulb on his first try; he looked back at a thousand failed experiments and saw them not as defeats, but as steps toward illumination. You too can have your own catalog of lessons. They will teach you resilience, help you refine your vision, and spark the growth you need. The past is a teacher, not a prison.
Channel the wisdom from every lesson into action, set your sights on the path forward and step boldly toward it. Start small, but don't remain small. Be grateful for what the past years have offered, but look towards the bigger picture. Progress is not always a sprint, it is a steady stride. When you stumble, look back just long enough to adjust your footing, then rise up and keep going. The road ahead is yours to claim.
The best way to predict the future is to create it. So, as the clock keeps ticking, begin by taking actions, and create the life that you desire. You have got stories behind you and adventures waiting, look back with grace, move forward with grit. You have all it takes to keep going, and you will pick more of what you need along the road. The world needs your light, go shine it.
To a better you, Kamikun John.
