If you have no regrets, you've made no mistakes, taken no chances, risked nothing, or thought, "damn the consequences, I'll deal with it when it comes" & done something totally stupid, possibly dangerous, & had the potential to alter your life for good or ill.

If you realise that the regrets that you have are of your own choosing, Yes you can ?

As much and as often as I consider mistakes I may have made … the culmination of those mistakes has been somewhat impressive.. The fact my effort did not lead to everything I’d hoped doesn't mean it didn’t lead somewhere positive. And as I’ve mentioned before, I don’t regret anything having led to my daughters, who they’ve become ..and where I’m at. Really, no regrets

Regrets, I've had a few...but then again, too few to mention.

I think everyone has regrets, but what are you going to do? You can either worry about those regrets, or accept that an opportunity passed, and be prepared for the next opportunity.

The things I regret not doing, if I had done them, I would have missed out on some great opportunities and experiences.

Yes. Not only possible, but many do.
There are things I might have done differently had I known what I do now, but I didnt, so what point reconsidering, second guessing, lamenting.
It seems more being caught by the myth of potential.
I've accepted I did what I did because at that moment I thought I had to.
Replaced in that time and space id do the same thing again.
So, yes, no regrets, no guilt, no myth of potential.

Have regrets but don't dwell on them.

Are you going to share with us your regrets? Or are you just looking for people to expose their?

I believe that Regrets are created by errors/ mistakes we make. If we can learn from them we will be able to delete them or if not archive them . In so doing we can make them un - noxious to our life.
It would be good if there was a rewind and delete button...

I try to learn from each experience, and let the bad feelings go.

Regrets, grudges and bitterness only hurt the grudge-holder.

There is an idea my therapist (yes I really said that) called radical acceptance. Because we live in a universe in which time is linear no matter how many times you replay a mistake in your head it is physically impossible to go hack and change the causal chain and fix it. So regret, no matter the reason, serves no one, least of all you. Find a way to accept imperfection and failure as a part of the human condition rather than a judgment on you personally. Learn to allow yourself to fuck up. And finally, in the immortal words of my grandfather,
"A turd stays a turd no matter how long you stare at it. Change what you're looking at and you'll change what you see. "

Hi
Whoever came up with the word regrets is, or was,
a masochistic sadist.
Of course we all have parts of our past lives that we would like to do over.
It's Impossible.

Only a couple, and nothing l dwell on.

I have some regrets. However if I can't fix it I'm not going to lose sleep over it. Learn the lesson and move on.Make peace with the situation in whatever way you can and move forward knowing better and doing better. Anyone who has no regrets has lived so carefully that they have not really lived.

I'm thinking regret is a manifestation of self loathing.
Just a thought...I could be wrong.

I regret that I don't have any regrets.....so do I or don't I?
(I'll better stick to engineering, philosophy make me dizzy)

People concentrate on the things they believe they could have done differently and always think that things would turn out better. You don't know that, maybe things would have worked out worse. Also, nobody seems to dwell on the decisions they make which turned out just dandy. Regardless, I try to balance the good vs. the bad, and try really hard not to make the same mistake twice. The past is dead and gone and the future is not certain, so focus on the here and now.

If one has had no regrets, then they haven't given a f%@ about anything. Now, perhpaps they've come to the place in their lives where they've decided they cannot live with the expectations of others hanging over their heads and have decided, "f%@ it! I'm done, finished, over it...I have no regrets!"

Maybe?

I regret a few things, but the other things I let go.

It's a fashionable answer, like being 'fashionably late'.

Part of getting older and wiser as you grow is there will always be regrets in life things you wish you did to things you didn't, even things you wish you hadn't done. its all part of being human being as we grown and learn.

I have regrets, but I can't dwell on them. Mainly use them as a catalyst move forward. Can't change the past or control the future, only can put things in motion now.

Regrets, I've had a few but then again too few to mention........ Oh wait that was Frank Sinatra, not me.

I saw this in a bookstore and knew where I needed to post it.

I regret all the naps I didn't take as a child ?
You CAN live without major regrets- you need to own up to your shot behaviours of the past, and make amends, apologies and changes. You need to reflect deeply enough on your wants and needs and failings, and identify were things line up with your core values, and where they don't. And then grab that butterflies into he stomach feeling by the antennae and make the hard choices needed to turn hard into what you see as missing. You also need to take a coldly realistic look at whether or not what you view your wants and needs will truly give you the things you want or need most, and be willing to shed those things that won't give you achievable results that match your ideals.

If you treat your past mistakes as life lesson they cease to be regrets
