If I don’t worship my Lord correctly over the years that would be the biggest regret for me. I pray I get sense before then and die peacefully; Happy with Him, and He is happy with me.

At that age, what someone should be thinking about is death, a peaceful one to be with God.
May God help us to run this heavenly race even in our youthful age, till we wear the crown of life. Amen.

did you really think before you asked the question?

if am to know my regrets at 80 now, then at 80 (the future) i wont have any because i would have seen them now (the present) and start to take the right direction from now

My point is you can not know some regrets becoz the future is not known

@op, why are you so specific about 80, why not 90 or 70 or 100, or even 85 or 79, why 80 gangan?

Or better still, why is your question not directed to old age? What is so spectacular about 80 years of age?

Because the Person who inspired this quote is
One of my Role Models Jeff Bezos, and he asks
that question a lot.

It is one of his ways of gaining a sense of priority
of what really matters in life.

He is also a Man who is known for Planning ahead
as much as 20 years into the Future.

That is the whole point of this exercise:

To Avoid Future Regrets and Mistakes Through Mental Precognition and Imagination.

Because...


Foresight is Far Better Than Hindsight.

i think you are failing to say your point or view

I am 47yr old meaning i have 33 years ahead of me, that is if am to live to that age

Alot can happen in 33 years regardless, what i had planned or what i achieved, no matter how much you plan, set and achieve can gaurantee no regrets at the end of time or age

If life was simple as your question tries to direct no one would have regrets


yes mental precognition and imagination can change things that you have power over but it doesnt mean you will able to avoid regrets in the future

You’re confusing yourself… this is a simple exercise in foresight. Imagination is creation.

It was done on purpose.

It's more like Okaaaaaayy?
