This is a podcast for relief from the self-inflicted pain called Regret. If you suffer from a chronic problem of regret \u2013 or you have a major life-defining regret, this is a podcast for you. The most important part is it\u2019s not about what it\u2019s about. It\u2019s a ruse! I am going to try to logically dismantle if for you, because I do not have regret \u2013 ever. It\u2019s not because I don\u2019t mess up, it\u2019s because there\u2019s no such thing as an undo button and regret is a worse sin than the original mess up. It\u2019s like burning something valuable and throwing opportunity in the trash. Quite simply? It\u2019s really a bad habit \u2013 and it\u2019s not about what it\u2019s about. You are punishing yourself for having to learn a lesson the hard way. Why? You want to feel bad because you feel like it\u2019s warranted: Like penance. It's a trained-in compulsion, your mind naturally assigns it. It has nothing to do with the thing you regret, itself. As your life exists only in the present. You are deciding (unconsciously of course) to relive the thing you dislike, that happened in the past. That is illogical: and most importantly - it is worsening something negative by wasting valuable energy and focus on it. Continuing to create waste! That is the real problem. It\u2019s like building a bonfire in the center of your living room because you accidentally burned a hole in the couch. Often, source of your regret is totally unrelated. They are old residual feelings of low self worth. It's a go-to label for all resonant feelings of pain. You get that sinking feeling of pain that creeps over you, and you think, \u201cwhat is this about? Oh yeah \u2013 I am sad because I ruined my interview..\u201d when in reality, it\u2019s from when you were in school and you got in trouble all the time. The feeling is really tied to, \u201cI\u2019m a bad kid.\u201d Regardless of the source \u2013 it\u2019s an automated reaction that must be deliberately undone. Starting now! Please join me!!
