no regrets

it is a fact of life. we all get it wrong sometimes. some of us more than others. but that is only because we don't allow life to take its course. we keep on getting in the way. our emotions and feelings gets tangled up in the realities that we face. and so we get lost in it all. but let us face facts. for some making a decision is a frightening experience. for others it is as easy as switching on a light switch. i was again reminded today of this fact after having a eye-opening chat with my wife. we should really get to that place where we live without any regrets. sure thing. it is not nice to get it wrong. but to me the following is what makes all the difference. i never ask myself the question whether or not i have made the correct decision if something does not work out the way i wanted it to. in other words whether i was right or wrong. i ask myself: DID IT SERVE A PURPOSE...and then i move on. cos we allow ourselves to loose momentum and get stuck on issues that changes nothing. so i think to live without regrets is to live without the fear of being wrong or the fear of FAILURE. make confident decisions. cos ultimately the challenge of making a decision is not to make the decision but rather living the decision that you have made and its consequences.
