| 0:00.0 | Just by nature of who I am, I am not a person who give into nostalgia. By nature, I am more of a future focus than past focus. I would rather plan and make plans for the future than regret the past. It's just who I am and that's my nature. Whenever I glance back, it is for two reasons. The number one is so that I learn |
| 0:22.8 | from my mistakes of which there are many. And the second reason when I glance at the back to the |
