Retrospection

Retrospection is the intentional looking back at experiences, decisions, or processes in order to draw conclusions for the future.

Definition

Retrospection is useful when it organizes experience and leads to correction of action. It may concern a project, a relationship, a decision or your own development. It differs from rumination in that it ends with a conclusion, decision, or change in process.

Practice and life

After completing the task, answer: what worked, what didn't work, what I didn't expect and what I will change in the next cycle.

Common misunderstanding
