making the most of a good experience

i was on a call with a friend a few months ago and she spoke to me about knowing when you're in the best place you can be, really it was about how we as humans so often love to look down on anything (i do this all the time), eg: a test went well but after you worry about every question, a conversation went well but you then worry about every interaction, etc

and she told me something a friend told her which i guess i'm now telling you (that felt like a really confusing sentence), but it's that, if in the moment, you feel like it went right, then don't dwell on it and turn something you loved into something you hate

so to make the most of a good experience, let yourself exist in the present. why would something that you felt amazing about at one second now be terrible looking back at it. don't do that to yourself, make the most of your experiences
