Financial advisors that look in the direction of the past are not so fond of the memories but it keeps them from looking into the future that could include things that are feared.
These same memories are like the jailer to the elephant that has become accustomed to captivity. While young, the elephant was bound by a chain to a log. When they tried and tried to escape they soon learned that they could not. All the trainer had to do when they became an adult was to tie the chain around their ankle and tether the chain to a small branch and they did not attempt to escape their defeats and fears of their past.
