Past data should only be used as a learning and not as a base for setting future goals

About This Quote

You can use past data to learn and improve your future performance and success. Past data is the result of the things you have done before and can be used as a learning tool for future goals. However, you should not use past data as a guide to set future goals. This would mean that you would be using past results as part of your plan for future performance.

For example, someone has been doing poorly at work and he has been using his poor performance as a learning strategy. He is more concerned with what he does wrong rather than what he does right. He is more concerned with his mistakes than his successes.

He is comparing himself with his past results instead of comparing him with the current reality. He is not making an honest comparison based on his current situation.
