In the rising strong process, looking back is done in the service of moving forward with an integrated and whole heart.
Rising Strong
Brené Brown
In reality, however, all knowledge producers belong to a larger universe of knowledge production. They begin their lives as intellectuals at a certain historical moment in a particular place, confronting a world that has already been named and mapped. They cannot but start from the questions that naming identifies as significant; their initial conceptual tools are all preowned. Over time, they may develop their own questions and their own concepts, and in the case of major thinkers, may even transform the intellectual landscape, but such intellectual innovations are themselves linked, albeit in complex ways, to realities beyond the realm of thought.

Grégoire Chamayou
