The 10 Most Common Regrets People Have Later In Their Life by Truepee(m): 1:37pm On Feb 21, 2017
This is a list of the most common regrets
people have, according to UpVee. I've included
a write up for each point, and transformed the
short video into a detailed article.
Make sure you won't have these regrets when
you reach old age:
1. Not Travelling When You
Had the Chance
This is one of the most common regrets I hear
people tell me. People have said to me in the
past that they regret not travelling more,
before they settled down into a 9-5 job and a
relationship.
Now, if you're an entrepreneur, you'll probably
believe that not travelling whilst you're young
in order to work hard and get yourself on the
ladder is the way forward.
After all, Grant Cardone, a self-made
millionaire recently made this same
statement. And that doing so has allowed him
to travel comfortably today whenever he
pleases.
But, there's two types of travel. One of those
being when you're exploring as much as you
can, you're young, single, no prior
commitments, and you're in your peak physical
state. That's an experience you really can't
miss out on.
Plus… Nobody said you had to put self-
development and education on hold whilst
travelling.
2. Staying in a Bad
Relationship
This one almost had me…
Are you someone, or do you know someone
nwho stays in a bad relationship, simply
because they're scared to be alone or that
they'll never find anyone else?
So many people stay with their partners simply
out of fear…
Eventually, this will become a HUGE regret.
When you're relationship has made you
miserable and it's too late to take back all
those years you spent with them.
3. Caring too Much About
What Other People Think
Fear of what other people would think kept
me captive for far too long. I would be scared
to do all the things I wanted to do, in case my
friends, or the people around me thought it
was stupid.
Truth is, it's your life, and you have to be
happy with it. You cannot let the opinions of
others dictate how you are going to live your
life.
As the quote goes;
Stop worrying so much about what other
people will think of you for the decisions you
make.
4. Being Afraid to Say 'I
Love You'
I probably only said those words to 3 people in
my entire life.
Why are we so afraid to say 'I love you'?
Because it might make us vulnerable?
Because the other person might not feel the
same way?
3 words could make somebody's day, their
week, their month, their year, even their life!
So this is a lesson from the older generation
to us all; don't be so afraid to tell people you
love them.
5. Working too Much
One of the biggest regrets people have is
having worked too much their whole life, that
they forgot to actually live. They were so busy
trying to make money to have all the things
they wanted, that they were unable to have
fun.
Unable to enjoy themselves.
Unable to even use all the things they worked
so hard for.
Don't be one of these people. Try and find
work-life balance, so that you can make
money doing what you love, but also have the
free time to use it.
It's like they say, some people are making
$40,000 a year, and happier than ever.
Whereas others are making millions, but
they're miserable.
Your income doesn't dictate your level of
happiness. Get Complete Post via the best motivation blog http://alhajikuipid..co.ke/2017/02/the-10-most-common-regrets-people-have.html?m=1
