June 15, 2015, TGIW: Unhumping Hump Day…Regretlessness

By Darrell Gurney | Blog

“I try to live my life where I end up at a point where I have no regrets. So I try to choose the road that I have the most passion on because then you can never really blame yourself for making the wrong choices. You can always say you’re following your passion. ” –Darren Aronofsky

Some of us grew up in cultures or thought circles that supported guilt or regrets.

Feeling bad about events, roads taken or “mistakes” made and then wearing those energies like a badge was somehow acceptable, if not honorable.

But think about it: beyond perhaps a swift and compassionate apology — to ourselves or others — what good has a juicy guilt or regret ever done for you?

Got regretlessess?

“With anything in life, I think that’s when you start stressing yourself out – when you start worrying about the things that are out of your control. What I can control is being at my best every day and having no regrets at the end of each day.” –Scott Tolzien
