Your Past Is a Lens Not a Leader
Podcast: The Playbook With David MeltzerPublished On: Wed Jan 28 2026
Description: In today’s episode, I share the six lessons behind the meaning of the past and why we do not suffer in the present. Reality is neutral and meaning is assigned, so I show how past stories drain energy, distort decisions, and create fear through projection. I explain how thoughts are signals, not commands, why we are rarely upset for the reasons we think, and how presence beats prediction when execution matters. I walk through cancel, clear, and connect as a repeatable way to reset, reclaim attention, intention, interpretation, and take the smallest next step aligned with where we want to be or better.
