Yeah, this is one of my favorite sections in the book. This is one of the latest additions before I submitted it, is this idea that regret is a form of perfectionism, right? And I wanted to talk about this with you today because I've just seen your blog from Australia on YouTube, right?

And you're on stage, and I don't know if this is still your view or not, but my recollection of what I saw was that you said on stage, or certainly the bit in the vlog, was about this idea that we choose our regrets. So can I present my perspective, which I see a little bit differently than that. I think it is possible to live a life of no regrets. I really do.

I don't think we necessarily have to choose our regrets. The definition of regret is when we look back on something with sadness or disappointment, this idea that we could have done something differently. I used to look back on many of my past experiences with guilt and shame. And I think that's what regret can do.

Because the reason I say that regret is a form of perfectionism is because at its core is this idea that I could have made perfect decisions. It was possible. And I'm a failure because I didn't. The problem with that kind of thinking is that it keeps us trapped into the past and it leads to guilt and shame.

And in terms of making changes that last, it won't allow you to do that because you keep beating yourself up in your mind over the things that you wish you'd done differently. Now, you can live a life of no regrets in two different ways, right? You can live it. And I'm not suggesting people do this in a way where it's like, yeah, screw everyone else. It's my life.

I'm going to be myself and do what I do. And I'm going to put it with the consequences. When I say you can live a life of no regrets, I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about it a slightly different way, which is I can look back on my past and I can learn from past experiences. I can choose to believe, which I do. It's a choice.

You don't have to believe this, but I would argue that your life is much happier and calmer if you choose to believe this. I choose to believe that I was always doing the best that I could based on the information I had at the time. If I choose to adopt that belief and then there's no room for regret. I was making the best decision I could. And now with hindsight, I go, yeah, you know what?

If I'm faced with that situation again, I can act differently and I will act differently because now I know better, I will do better. But I couldn't have done better back then. And in terms of your question before, Chris, why is it that at this stage of my life, I feel so good? One of the reasons, there's many, one of the reasons is because I no longer have any regrets.
