No matter how carefree and liberal-minded some people might seem, at the end of the day, our careers, and lives, we always look back and take stock of what we accomplished or did not.
Remember, we only live once and stock-taking of our accomplishments and failures is part of human nature. Here are ten interesting but real regrets most people have when it’s too late.
Take a read:
1. Caring too much about what other people think
It’s only when you realize how little other people are really thinking of you (in a negative sense) that you realize how much time you spent caring and wasting energy worrying about this.
2. Not willing to take risks
Everyone has their own idea of what’s risky, but you will always know when you’re living too much in your comfort zone. In hindsight, some people feel they missed out on a lot of adventure life has to offer.
3. Not accomplishing enough
You don’t have to have won an Oscar, built up a business or run a marathon, but having small personal accomplishments is important.
4. Not standing up for yourself more
Sometimes, it’s too easy to think that if you go all out to please everyone you’ll be liked more or your partner won’t run off with anyone else. I think age probably teaches us to be nice but not at the expense of our own happiness.
5. Not having followed your passion in life
It’s so easy to be seduced by a stable salary, a solid routine and a comfortable life, but at what expense? Passion.
6. Not living more in the moment enough
Watching children grow up makes you realize how short-lived and precious time really is, and as we age, many of us live less and less in the present.
7. Working too much
There’s always a desire to have loosened up a bit more with this one and the realization that financial success or career accomplishment doesn’t necessarily equal a fulfilled life.
8. Listening to everyone else
Making your own decisions and feeling confident in the decisions you make gives us fulfillment and joy from life. Going against your gut only breeds resentment and bitterness.
9. Not taking good care of yourself
Premature health problems or ageing always makes you wonder if you’d eaten healthier, exercised more and been less stressed, would you be where you are today?
10. Having worried too much in life
If you’ve ever kept a diary and looked back, you’ll probably wonder why you ever got so worked up over something.
