That's why I don't tend to look backward. I just don't see it accomplishing much.
(If I felt like I needed more pleasure, and I were convinced nostalgia was reliably pleasurable and would continue to be even if I made a frequent habit of it, I might.)
- themodelplumber 5y agoIt's really heavily used in logistics and business stabilization. In the sense of don't get fancy, remember the founding principles, do what you know (your past). And celebrate what you know. Such businesses often do the gold watch, the pension, the career milestones celebration as part of this integration into the nostalgic whole. In other words, it's more like the psychological engine which powers the role and tool selection than the "specific way things are done" and the businesses turn into the big ones over time. Edit: It's interesting though, we could say that in your comments you are basically representing and promoting the best of your past, insofar as it informs your preferred way of doing things. The way you have learned that you like things to be, or be done, by you. So there's this overlap with nostalgia concepts and subjective perception.
