Top 5 Regrets of the Dying
It’s the first Monday in June and as we reflect on 2022 so far, it is critically important we prepare to do the work with the remainder of the year so we don’t find ourselves regretting anything.
Living a life of regret is real. Unfortunately, so many people don’t stop to think about the negative impact of delaying the concept of purposeful living. If you don’t live life to the fullest, you are bound to live a life of regret.
A lot of people are dying on the inside. They are mentally destroying themselves everyday with constant doubt/regret. As you read this week’s blog, I want to remind you to trust that your greatest hardships in life make you stronger and who you are. My prayer is that you have learned the lessons from your past. Pain can be turned into something beautiful or even more horrific.
No one ever really knows what they would do in a life or death situation. But I assure you, if I was ever in situation where I have the power to prevent unnecessary loss of life yet sat around and did nothing, that would be a regret.
I once heard a motivational speaker say, “Life’s an ice cream shop, only a select few have the courage to try all the flavors. Most only stick to what they know.”
This week I would like for us to look at the top five regrets of the dying.
1. I wish I had the courage to live a life true to myself.
2. I wish I had not worked so hard.
3. I wish I had the courage to express my feelings.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
You may be surprised to know this is common. Unfortunately, too many people don’t realize until the end that living an effective life is a choice. They stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. Only to find themselves living with these common regrets.
The so-called 'comfort' of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending in front of others, and to themselves, that they were content, when deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again and again.
You don’t have to live this way. You can decide now as you’re reading this week’s blog, that you are not going to live with these common regrets.
I challenge you to decide to make the rest of the year the best of the year; decide to make the rest of your life the best of your life. If you’re needing help contact me. I’m a life management coach and I’m here to help.
