Don’t Look Back

by B.C. Raines on 09/18/19

I am a huge football fan and just love watching a good competitive game. Recently, I watched a college football game where a defense player managed to get the ball from the opposing team and he ran with it. He was running as fast as he could to get to his team’s touchdown area but there was one problem…he kept looking back.

 

I noticed that each time he looked back, he didn’t move forward as quickly. It seemed that the more he looked back, the closer the opposing team’s player got to him.  You see he couldn’t look back and move forward at the same time. I kept screaming, “Stop looking back!” (You know he could hear through the TV, right?) LOL. Someone else watching the game with me kept saying something like, ‘he’s doing his best; he’s not used to running the ball’. I thought: Yeah, I get it but looking back never moved anybody forward.

 

My reminder to you: Don’t look back. Looking back only slows us down and causes us to lose momentum. Yes, the past may be familiar and comfortable and the future can be uncertain and scary because we have never been there before but experience has taught me that moving towards our goals (moving forward) is the best way to live life and the only way to have new experiences.
