I don't deal in regret. I did what I did because it was either what I wanted or what I felt was necessary. Regret is pointless.

Made some mistakes like anyone else.  Since I can't change them, no need to linger.

Probably spending too much money on things I didn't need.

I don't grade my mistakes on a scale of bad to worse. But instead I learn from them and leave those mistakes behind me.

@aj1980 Worrying about what I did and not worrying enough about what I could do.  

 

But all in all, I have tried all my life to ask forgiveness when I need to and shake it off and look forward.  If you don't you can't accept forgiveness and you miss your blessings.

Spending on clothes, shoes, and jewelry that I didn't wear very often.  Since it has gone to charity shops, I hope someone is getting some use.

Listening to other people instead of listening to myself for guidance.

 

After all, they wanted only the best for themselves.

After 46 years is the business world I cannot say that I made any huge mistakes with my life, perhaps things I could done differently or better. But my philosophy is Sometimes I win, sometimes I learn.
