Reminiscing about positive stuff can be bad too, past a point. It can be nice to briefly connect with good things that happen, smile remembering them and such. If you become stuck in the past, though, it can keep you from improving your current life. It’s the kind of thing that keeps people stuck in a mindset of a high school athlete when that was the highlight of their life.

Yeah that's true... that's basically turning a good memory from the past into a negative emotion in the present.
But yeah anything that keeps you living in the past for any reason would be bad. Unless you've invented time travel I guess.
