“I don't really look at my past work, I just keep going forward”

Daniel Day Lewis

Simplified Meaning:

Imagine you are an artist or a writer who has created many works over the years. Instead of spending a lot of time looking back at what you have already done, you choose to focus on creating new things. This way of thinking helps you stay motivated and keeps your creative energy flowing. For example, Thomas Edison made many inventions, but he didn’t spend too much time admiring what he had already made. Instead, he kept working on new ideas, which is why he has so many inventions to his name. By keeping your attention on what you can do next, rather than what you have already done, you can continue to improve and achieve more. This approach can be applied to any area of life, whether it's work, learning a new skill, or personal goals. Instead of dwelling on the past, look ahead and keep moving towards your future goals.
