My father said that people prefer to remember than to think.

Remembering is the past, thinking is the future. And a lot of people are looking back at what they did, and they're very pleased sometimes with their achievements, but for him it was not important. What happened in the past is done, it's gone, we cannot change it. Whether it's a great success or a failure, you just need to rise up and move into the future.

It's relevant for my son. Maybe I would spend time in the US in a university earlier. I spent a couple of years in Silicon Valley, but maybe in an earlier stage in my life to help me calibrate myself. When you come from a small country like Israel, you have very few or very certain... Skewed.
