Rearview

The conventional advice is to not look in the rearview mirror.

Eyes ahead. Focus on what’s next. Don’t dwell upon the past.

But this advice is not the same as “don’t look behind you.”

Because looking behind you can be useful. Things can approach from behind. It could be danger, but it could be help, too.

And sometimes it’s someone who’s following in your footsteps. In those moments, you’re in a prime position to be a generous guide.
