A client emailed me this blog post (summarised here), written by Bronnie Ware, a palliative care worker who was reflecting on her conversations with patients.
When she questions her patients about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently, common themes surfaced again and again. Here are the most common five:
1. I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
2. I wish I didn’t work so hard.
3. I wish I’d 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.
Read the full post here. How true this is.
What could you change so you don't have the same regrets?

great post Kate, I was actually looking for something like this yesterday, amazing how it just pops up the day after.
I think the best thing people can change immediately is to switch to a no regret mindset
cheers

Thanks Gordon...isn't it amazing how that happens sometimes? I hope you can make the change yourself. Wishing you 'no regrets'.

Thanks Kate
Seek and you shall find, something that has become more and more apparent to me each day, mystical.
I live everyday with no regrets, it is the only pathway to a fulfilled life
Cheers
Gordon
