@sunflowers5 it's really awesome to hear you're better at coping to situations. That self-talk will become a natural part of your behaviour and attitude to life 🙂

@NutellaBuster yes it definitely has! haha I found that I was always positive towards everyone's situation but myself. So the self-talk has really helped me see things in a better way!

@sunflowers5 yeah absolutely, you rock. Self talk is great and your right, usually in social settings people are in the same situation!

How has learning from your regrets helped your decision making hence?
I definitely think before making decisions and think of the impact it could have in the future on myself and the people around me.

I've learnt that I should focus more, learn, study but I don't follow through. I often don't think about my regrets, if I do, I don't think of them as regrets, nore things I could have done better.- Mark as New

I think once you've felt true regret about something, you do everything you can to avoid that feeling again by changing your behaviour. For example I dated someone for the wrong reasons, and I felt horrible about it. Definitely wouldn't do that again. It's really important to be kind to yourself when thinking about your regrets, and not getting caught up in them, just learning for the future!

Regrets aren't bad, it's what they are, what you regret that can be bad.

When have you allowed yourself to learn from your regrets? What have you learnt?I had a lot of regrets with school and what happened when I left. But now I see I did the best I could with what was going on with my mental health. Now I'm more focused to get what Iwant in life especially when it comes to study

good on you @redhead, it is important to be honest with yourself. Sometimes we understandably miss opportunities, and in my opinion, this shouldn't be something we regret

We have regrets because... we look over our past critically, thinking of things we could've done better and regret that we didn't.

Okay, so it sounds like we acknowledge that regrets have their place as learning tools, but that we shouldn't ruminate about them beyond what is healthy.
next question
4. When have you allowed yourself to learn from your regrets? What have you learnt?

Lots of life lessons are learnt through regrets. Some of mine are probably believing in myself more as I have missed what could have been some great opportunities.
And probably thinking before saying/doing because it can lead you to offend or hurt people unintentionally.

Do you guys think regrets are 'bad'?No. They allow us to learn and hopefully make better decisions in the future. But if we dwell on regrets too much its hard to move forward.

Why do we have regrets?
Because everyone will regret something or a decison they have made earlier in their life, sometimes it's things we haven't or never did and wanting to do it now, it's something that everyone seems to have
