“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something—your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.” – Steve Jobs.
So we are often told not to look back or dwell on the past if we want to move forward, but then how we refrain from going back into the same situation if we don't have an understanding what the past was about?
Blessed!
You must live with a trust on your future while making sure you understand what processes lead you to where you are.
Connecting the dots takes more than just wishing to make dots but, to be able to connect them so well that when you draw a line, the pattern will show.
Your gut, destiny, life, karma, and whatever else you hold as something should enable you get from step "a" to step "x".
A man without a belief system or conviction cannot get far in life.
Connect the dots while looking back so that, you can be able to see a clear picture of where you intend to get to when you step back and take a look.
You need the past to forge a path into the future.
Your life can be great without the past as some persons will say, "but how do you get to the future if you do not come from somewhere before the future?"
Connect the dots while looking back then ahead, and you will connect your life.
