Motivational Power Quote
Regret of Things Left Undone
“As you grow older, you’ll find the only things
you regret are things you didn’t do .”
Zachary Scott 1914 -1965, actor
As I see it . . . . . . .
Regret of things left undone
There are many things that we would like to do.
Some would be appear difficult to do and we decide not to try, other would require a commitment of time and we choose not to commit the time and we move on.
In other cases we have a fear of failure and never undertake the task.
The reasons for not starting a task or walking away from a task are endless. We convince ourselves its right thing to do when in our heart we know that we should start and complete the task.
When we leave things undone in our life, we cheat ourselves out of discovering what could have been possible with a little more effort and a commitment to successfully complete the task.
Giving your best and completing a task won’t guarantee a successful outcome. But when everything is said and done you didn’t quit and you gave it your best.
Not completing a task insures the task will drift leading to either a poor or failed results.
The regret of things left undone can become overwhelming. Finish your tasks and you will find satisfaction in your actions. Do the things that you have always wanted to do, do them the best that you can do them and you’ll find the pathway to reaching your full potential.
