A good post! I am in my mid-twenties and one thing I learnt (other than regret) was never feel guilty for your decisions. Be it career, relationships, life in general. And never think twice to try something you love. Especially in your 20s, it doesn’t hurt to lose a couple of years. You took entrepreneurship and you stuck to it but if you did not want to , you could always move back to being an engineer. Something that is very hard to do in your 30s or 40 (I guess!).

Having regrets about past decisions ruins the present. We all take ‘right’ decisions at a given point of time based on our understanding (वकुब), knowledge, set of beliefs, and under some (lesser or more) external influences. As the time passes our understanding deepens, knowledge widens, and beliefs change. And so what felt ‘right’ at that time doesn’t feel ‘that much right’ today, or worst feels ‘wrong’. Exactly at a point when we start feeling so, I guess we need to see if those feelings are realistic. May be some decisions and choices were wrong, may be some were right but not ‘that much right’, may be some were excellent. But even the so called wrong decisions help us learn in every possible way and that is what is important. Had we not taken that wrong decisions, we could have lost opportunity to learn. So … why to regret ? :)

If we look at all our past regrets, what I felt was, there were hardly any TRUE regrets, most of them were incidental things and although they might have not been the best decisions but they gave me invaluable experience and insights in various things in life.

Past is something that we cannot change … so having a policy of – Having no regrets – works quite well :)
