How many times have the words
on hindsight been used on you?
Think about it.
On hindsight, I could have done this better.
On hindsight, we should have seen this coming.
On hindsight, the plans could have been thought through a little more precisely.
All these retrospective Ra-ra-rah's are fine and dandy but when used a tad too often as a sorry excuse for mediocrity, they become a load of babbling bullshit spewed by people whom God probably created with their retinal marbles at the back of their heads. How else would you explain the constant backward view.
Isn't the benefit of hindsight supposed to give u some semblance of foresight? Or is foresight needed to unravel the hidden lessons sometimes wrapped up in hindsight?
Chicken or egg. Po-tay-toe, Po-tah-toe. Toh-may-toe, Toh-mah-toe?
Hmmmm...
