as others have said, we only get this one chance at life, and there’s no point wasting it regretting things.
Yes we all have to make choices, but as long as at the time, we believe we are making the right choice, then there is no point regretting it later if it turns out not to be such a good choice.
Looking back, I have made some stupid choices and decisions, but if I think further about them, if I had done things differently, then I wouldn’t be where I am today, living the life I have. So perhaps I wouldn’t do things the same again, but who is to say the alternative would have been any better?
Someone once told me that when faced with a decision,
“Think 20 or 30 years forward. Would you regret taking the chance, or not taking the opportunity? Imagine yourself 20 years older and go with your gut instinct – it’s usually right.”
I find it helps me to make decisions (which I am not good at!!)
