How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward by Daniel H. Pink, Gisela Chipe, et al.

1. Regret is universal.
Everyone has regrets. They are a normal part of the human experience.

2. Regret is not the same as guilt or shame.
Regret is about the past, while guilt and shame are about the present. Regret is a feeling of sadness or remorse about something that has happened, while guilt is a feeling of responsibility for something that has happened, and shame is a feeling of humiliation or disgrace.

3. Regret can be a powerful motivator.
Regret can motivate us to make changes in our lives. For example, if we regret not pursuing a particular career path, we may be more likely to take steps to make that dream a reality.

4. Regret can also be a source of wisdom.
Regret can help us to learn from our mistakes and make better decisions in the future.

5. There are four core regrets that most people have.
These regrets are:
• The “Boldness Regret”—We regret not taking risks and living life to the fullest.
• The “Connection Regret”—We regret not investing enough time and energy in our relationships with others.
• The “Integrity Regret”—We regret making decisions that went against our values.
• The “Provision Regret”—We regret not taking care of our physical and financial health.

By following these lessons, we can learn to manage our regrets and use them to live a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
