well everything is not in our control or hands but few things which could have been done or which could have been avoided makes us regret all through our life. I remember few of my mistakes that was really unnecessary and still I regret on them. people failed to realize many times the truth and the fact of matters and that make them commit mistakes intentionally or unintentionally. "I wish I had not done that/ say that, reacted like that/ lied ..........." many many such mistakes. for me "I wish I had a chance to rectify them". do you friends have such mistakes which make you regret still now?? you can share with me.

Hi sayo, I think we have done things in our lives that if we had the chance to do over we would do it a different way. But that life and thats really what makes the world go around, we live and we learn.. One of the things I wish I made a different choice of was not attending college...I loves school but when it was over I was just so happy to be out of school, that I didn't want to see anymore school..I really wish that I had went to college, one of the biggest mistakes of my life...

hello bjc66jc, well this really hurts when you made some decisions of life by your own choice and later you started repenting on that. even every human being now or then have this kind of feeling in their life and there is nothing to do rather becoming more concious and aware for future. best wishes.

The only thing I really do regret is not picking up my efforts with my education when I was rather young. I did fine, but there was a point where I wanted to do better and there was rather going to be an uphill battle to say the very least. I think that not paying attention to my studies was several minor mistakes, but I picked things up, so mistakes rectified. Of course it lead for a lot more hard work. Then again, I will be making many more mistakes. Many that I have forgotten all of the details but not the lessons. The lessons are really just going to just shape a lot about our lives, shaping us as better people. Providing of course we actually learn the results of those lessons. It is just something that is a huge part of life.

It's very difficult to go through life without making any mistakes or having any regrets for things we have said or done. I have found that mistakes and regrets that revolve around friendships can be the hardest for me to bear. i would love to be able to go back and change things that have happened with friendships. Our lives could be so much different if we could take back the mistakes and regrets that have hurt us and the ones we have loved.

Ya so many embrassing and wrong action causing many bad memories and bad scar , those we can forgive but hard to forget how sometime people can be so dumb or careless and such , and somtime the memories will creep into the current time zone and have to perform mental block and sweep them in the corner of the brain and imagine them being locked in a safe deposite to forget temporary.

Of course we all have done mistakes.We all make mistake and learn a lesson.Unfortunately sometimes we people don't understand things at a time so do the same mistake.Making the same mistake multiple times is not good at all but regretting it all through life is absolutely useless.Regrets are a total waste of time;one need to try and move on! Why waste your time on things that only hurt you?

Mistakes in life are inevitable. What matters most is that I learn from it. I;m not sure if it is really a mistake, but I'm regretting for it. I feel that I've been wasting my time doing nothing. I should've practiced my profession last year but here I am. Still, unemployed.

Whatever you assumed hinge on upon your rule about mistakes. We all need Guidelines for Living that we educated early in life and relate to our daily experiences. Because we live in an accomplishment and success leaning world, a popular rule is, Every time you do anything, do it correct. If we assumed it as our own then it may have been interpreted as, "Be meticulously acceptable and capable in everything you do." With this rule we become obsessives and don’t like mistakes. If you are a purist or just like to "do things right" then every time you make a mistake, the Voice of Principles speaks up. Whether the mistake is huge or slight the Voice of Principles is heard and says somewhat like, Can’t you do everything right? You will never pick up. Why don’t you just surrender?" Shortly, you are feeling depraved. You are unhappy, irritated, or unfulfilled. If somebody asks what is wrong, you point out the mistake. Anybody would be distressed. Accomplishment comes from mistakes.

of course i have them, yes. we all do, i'm sure. some of us choose not to dwell on them though and look forward and not backward, that is what makes us heal and better ourselves. for me i just regret making some bad decisions that have altered my future like now, i could have been happier hadn't done this or that. it is normal to think this way but nothing can be done about it now.
