I'm not.

And so I think it's always good to have compassion and empathy towards your former self because you now know so many things that they didn't know.

You know, you're in a different place.

You, you see things differently and,

And so one, I think it's very beautiful to recognize you're not the same person as you were in the past and to have only empathy towards your past.

There's no upsides to having bad or negative emotions towards your past.

It does nothing for your future.

It does nothing for your present.

And so always transforming your past

into gains and greater perspective, learning, that is, again, back to post-traumatic growth, it's that you are grateful.

The idea of trauma is really that something happened to your past and you feel like you're now...

in some way inferior.

You've gone backwards.

You're also crippled in some way because of what happened.

Whereas the opposite is that now you're empowered because of what happened.

So I guess that's one.

In terms of always seeing your future self as a different person, to me what that does is it propels a growth mindset.

The definition of a fixed mindset is that you've purely defined who you are based on your past and

then you assume that who you are now is who you're always going to be.

So you have a fixed mindset.
