dilemma of looking forward vs backward

Twinkle, what’s better looking foreward or looking backward? Yes.

Cattle Drive monument, Dallas, TX. ach drive was comprised of 3,000 head, 12 miles/per day.  Big risk, those cows only asset on balance sheet.  “This situation here in Midwest is getting bleak.  We have to look forward.  Get to a more abundant place.  Cowboy looks backward “Why did I do this?” Twinkles in contrast looks forward, “We gotta do this, you can do it big fella.”

Most finance folks ‘bound to the backward.’  Best advice ever got, “I need a CFO that looks more forward than backward.”

Twinkle what do you think? Looking backward is was a great day at the park and I look forward to going again tomorrow.

Which was more important?

BOTH.
