What details of your life could you pay more attention to?

My inner critic has been more vocal than usual lately. I’ve found myself dwelling on the stupid, ignorant things I said and did in the past, the bleeding obvious that I overlooked, not deliberately but surely I could have known better at the time?

Then I heard Adam Grant say something like this: “The stupid things you did in the past are not a sign that you’re incompetent. They’re a symbol of how much you’ve grown.”

All the stupid things you did represent where you were, not where you are today, so keep growing, transforming and evolving. Focus on that instead.
