Caroline Cavanagh uses a rear-view mirror metaphor to explain why weekly reflection matters. Looking back at recent events and lessons before planning the next week helps you extract useful insights and move forward with less anxiety.

one of the regular metaphors that I use when working with people is driving. And you wouldn't set off without glancing in your rearview mirror to make sure it's safe, to see what's behind you before you move forward. And that is also a great metaphor as you end a week and I'm starting thinking about planning next week, is to just glance behind. What's gone on that I can use from the past that means next week is going to be even better?
