The Power of Regret

Many of us feel regret about the past from time to time, but few people understand what regret really means and how to solve it.It is really quite simple, we never fall into regret when our life is just the way we want it.Regret is actually just an indication of something that is true in the present that we would like to be different.Once we understand this, the process is simple.• First identify the regret from the past.• Ask yourself what would be different now if the past had been different.• Realize that the only possible time to make this true is now.• Make the changes you need to make to have the present the way you want it.For example:• I regret not going to college.• If I had gone to college I would be in a career I love.• I need to find a career I love.• What if I found the courage to change my career and find a career I love now?We can always wish we had done something different in the past, or that things were different, but regret is always disempowering, it allows us to be victims of our self.Start eliminating all of of your regrets by using them to create your life just the way you want it today. Make a list of all of your regrets and start knocking them out.
