My dad said that the other day. You gotta look back to go forward.
in wayfinding there is a navigational concept called reverse bearing. A reverse bearing is the opposite direction of your current bearing — the direction you would travel to return to your starting point.
If you wanted to find a reverse bearing, you add or subtract 180 degrees from your current bearing. Your goal is to find the exact opposite direction.
If you can understand the reverse bearing you can understand how to navigate back to the beginning. In the process of life, moving forward means embracing the path that leads us back to our origin — our ultimate home.
