  2. Yes, life backward DOES look different. What an insightful lesson you learned about going back, because when you climb a mountain, you do have to go back and probably the same way you came up. It’s a bit different on a hike when it can be a circular route. I am going to give this a listen on the way into school this morning. Have a wonderful Wednesday.

  3. These are important lessons, Wynne. Thank you. Of course, we all use the language of success and failure, winning and losing.

    At this stage of things, at least for me, I ask myself why Socrates or Jesus, for example, didn’t commonly use that language often, if at all. Was it because they were looking for something different? Just wondering. Thanks for provoking my thoughts.

  6. So true Wynne! Thanks for this encouraging reminder.

    My life’s front windshield is cracked and often so fogged up it’s difficult to see where I’m headed, but my rear mirror is smooth and clear revealing I’ve been there… done that, and gratefully journeyed through.

    Keep Looking Up ^ … His Best is Yet to Come!

  7. “Such a profound reflection! 🌟 The crepe paper as a guide is such a beautiful metaphor for life—leaving markers so we can look back and understand, even as we keep moving forward.”

  8. Brilliant post Wynne
    Thank you🤗
    I think many people chase their dreams without enjoying the small wins.
    SUCCESS means different things to different people.
    I am not interested in fame or fortune, no thanks!
    The small moments to me are actually my big moments.
    I do however have a dream of signing books in Waterstones.
    Shh 🤭 don’t tell.
    Just enjoy what you do and be authentic

  11. it is so good to reflect back and think how far we’ve. you know I’m a big proponent of baby steps, and sometimes it feels like we’re not even making progress at all, but as you said, if we stop and look back, we can learn a lot from what we’ve already done and give ourselves credit for how far we’ve actually come. I recently heard someone from the band The Eagles something in the same vein, that only now, that he is much older, does he have any understanding of how all these little dots along the way connected to bring him exactly to where he was meant to be, though he could not see why many of the things that happened along the way (the dots) had happened. can’t wait to listen and learn

    1. Wow – the Eagles. How interesting!

      I imagine working with kids that you see the power of looking back. The amount they change in a school year is amazing but barely perceptible at the time.

      Great comment – thanks, Beth!

  12. The crepe paper story is what I’m holding onto this week, Wynne. That is so TRUE about having to look back to remember what will be front of you on the return. I am so drawn to that idea. Thank you so much!

  15. So much wisdom and insight are offered in this clip, as well as in all your interviews. There is no finish line to learning. It’s not about always being right or the best; it’s about having the wisdom to make changes based on what’s happened to us.

  19. Life often makes sense when we look back and see how all the twists and turns have led us to where we are right now, exactly where we need to be! Should we regret the way not taken? I don’t think so, for life has a way of stepping in and redirecting us.

      1. Yup, sometimes the universe gives us a nudge, and other times the cogs of the universe to a massive shift, no matter how hard we try to redirect things!

  21. I love what you shared about the mountain climbing, Wynne, and I’m still in awe of the hiking and climbing you’ve done. All your takeaways are great, and the quote by Steve Jobs is wise too. We will always learn something, but we have to be open to it, and accept that we’re not failing. Great post! 💕

    1. Thank you, Lauren! You are so right – we have to be open to learning. Isn’t it funny when we store a lesson that we’re not ready to learn yet and then find out its meaning later on? It feels like most of my climbing stories are that for me – I didn’t understand the import til later!
