A short motivational monologue arguing that to assess your ability to tackle new tasks you should look backwards at past successes rather than forward at unknowns. The speaker says uncertainty about a future task is normal, and that remembering previous occasions where you figured things out can provide confidence to attempt unfamiliar challenges.
If you want to know what you're capable of, look backwards, don't look forwards.
It's so easy to feel like I don't know how to do it, so I won't get it done.
But that's nonsensical. You've never done this thing before. Of course, you never know how to do the next thing. It would be boring if you already knew how to do it. You care about something, and you get so focused on the future and. And what you don't know. But if you look backwards, things look very different. And often that's what helps me to take on a task that I don't know how to do. Because I don't have to prove to myself I believe that I know how to do that task. I only have to convince myself that I've historically done a good job of figuring out tasks I didn't know how to do.
