Looking back - it's something we can't do too often as there is the fact that we cannot live in the past. But - we can look back to remember things, to remember people and the lessons we learned that helped get us to where we are today. Well, from starting a new school term - I've been able to reflect a little bit as students have asked me questions as part of my get to know them campaign that I start out every new class with.
And while answering some of these questions , I had on the movie "A League Of Their Own" - the baseball move about women playing baseball during WWII. Talk about a tear-jerker in a couple of parts along with tons of smiles and laughs.... which is what life is all about... that movie always gets me thinking about my past and how I got to where I am today.
Reflecting back and remembering where you came from is something that I think we should never forget. Our past is our best mentor - the value of those lessons that we can always draw back on - those are all so very valuable. Watch that movie - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104694/?ref_=ttsnd_snd_tt and listen to Madonna's song - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WdzR2VKa8A
Powerful reflections that can still teach us lessons today. :-) Let me know your thoughts.... either on FB: https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/ or Twitter: @coachtosuccess
