Bronnie Ware, a nurse responsible for palliative care, has written a book in which she tells the five most common regrets in people about to die. Knowing a little more about these stories can make you change the way you live or even deal with everyday situations. Check the list below.
1. “I wish I had the courage to live a life true to myself and not the life others expected of me”
Living at the mercy of what others will think is the worst way to lead your life and your choices. Only take into account the opinions of important people in your life who make a difference in your choices. Remember that everyone has their own path and you must be true to what you believe or would like to live.
2. “I wish I didn't work so much”
Work should be a means for you to achieve your dreams and goals, but it doesn't have to become your only way of life. Attendance at work can translate into absences from home, important events or even a lack of leisure or travel.
Thus, being able to balance the balance between work and personal activities is important for you to be able to live with quality everything that is essential in your life.
3. “I wish I had the courage to express my feelings”
Repressing emotions and feelings can cause a series of health hazards, with physical and mental consequences. Thus, it is important to learn to express the different emotions, in addition to teaching others around you to show it too.
4. “I wish I had kept in touch with my friends”
One of the main sources of joy in life is friendship. Moments lived with friends can be registered in the memory as a memory of something very positive.
5. “I wish I had allowed myself to be happier”
Being happy is a choice you must make every day. And that choice can only be made in the present moment. Postponing happiness doesn't make you find it in the future. On the contrary, time passes and it can be increasingly difficult to conquer that long-awaited joy.
