Having done that, the potential difference across a
resistor is *always* -iR when one "goes with the flow" and +iR
when one "goes against the flow." This seems natural because of
the obvious and proper analogy with a stream as implied by the
words.
In exactly the same way, the potential difference across an
inductor is *always* -Ldi/dt when one "goes with the flow" and
+Ldi/dt when one "goes against the flow."
