There Is A Reason...
There Is A Reason... A recent question in the ActiveRain Q&A section asked about having regrets regarding real estate. It pertained to a professional choice but I guess it could be extended to any choice when real estate is the subject.
Of course, I pondered. A bit. About regret. Not necessarily about real estate. I wondered... Give My Regrets to Broadway rather than Give My Regards... How different would that George M Cohan song be? A word change does have an influence on our perception. Maybe it's not just a word but an attitude...
I continued on a pondering path... The words of others often finds me wondering and then a search is sure to follow. I found some quotes. And here are some of those "discoveries" -
Regret leads to negativity and negativity kills creativity
Carol Channing
I think the only advice
I can give you on how to live your life well is,
first off, remember...it's not the things we do in life that we regret
on our deathbed,
it is things we do not
Randy Pausch
Always do your best.
Your best is going to change from moment to moment,
it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick
Under any circumstance,
simply do your best,
and you will avoid
self-judgment, self-abuse and regret
Don Miguel Ruiz
I was a slow starter.
I didn't really make any dazzling impressions.
But I don't really regret that because I learned a lot along the way.
I always kept busy.
I found my way, and I'm happy about it.
Christopher Lloyd
At the end of your life,
you will never regret
not having passed one more test,
not winning one more verdict or not closing one more deal.
You will regret time not spent
with a husband, a friend, a child or a parent
Barbara Bush
