Things you might regret in the future if you don’t change your actions today

A nurse from Australia, Bronnie Ware, worked for several years with people who were on the verge of death, staying with them in their last months of life. In conversations with her patients, she learned about life’s biggest regrets and realized that virtually everyone resented having worked too much and spent too little time with their relatives. Furthermore, many blamed themselves because they didn’t dare to show their true personality and express their feelings. Have you ever thought if there is something you do today that you might regret in the future? We’ve put together for you a list of the most common things people regret when they’re older. Our intention is to motivate you to do things today that you haven’t yet dared to do, so that you won’t have any regrets in the future.

O awesome.club proposes that you interrupt for a few minutes the unbridled pace of modern life and ask yourself if you live in the best way possible so that later you don’t regret that there is no more time or that you didn’t do something that really mattered.

1. Worrying too much about appearance

Many of us are more interested in finding fault with our physical appearance and we mostly do this in our youth. Remember that youth is beautiful, but unfortunately it passes very quickly.

2. Not learning another language

It is much easier to learn new things when we are young. So if you didn’t put a lot of effort into language classes when you were in school, try to start studying right now. Knowledge is never too much.

3. Not following parental advice

4. Not taking care of the skin

Wrinkles, blemishes and even skin cancer are the result of ultraviolet rays. It is essential to protect the skin from the sun, to stay young for longer. Furthermore, we cannot forget that bad habits such as smoking and having a deregulated diet contribute to premature aging of the skin, in addition to facilitating the appearance of blemishes.

5. Missing the opportunity to do something

If you have the opportunity to do something you dream of doing today, don’t miss it. No one knows when another will arise again, nor if it will.

6. Not taking care of your health

By the time you’re 60, you might regret not taking enough time for your health. Visit your doctor regularly and have follow-up exams.

7. Being moody and distancing yourself from people

It’s impossible to keep friends, find them, or even meet your “better half” if you’re home all the time and afraid to step out of your bubble. Most people don’t wish you harm: stop defending yourself against these “imaginary enemies” of yours.

8. Not knowing how to defend yourself

In the beginning, you were afraid of suffering bullying at school, then college, and now he’s terrified of having an arrogant boss. He is not afraid to stand up for himself, otherwise he will never overcome this fear.

9. Not finishing what you started

10. Not perfecting yourself

Learning to play the piano without knowing a single note, running a marathon, learning how to prepare an incredible dish or knowing the difference between Manet and Monet. Perfect yourself in at least one of your skills and share it with others.

11. Worrying too much about the opinions of others

The uncles, the aunts, the co-workers, the moms on the playground… Everyone has their opinion on how you should live. Listen to only one person: yourself. Your opinion is what really matters, only you know what it’s like to live your life, what your tastes and choices are and the reason for making them.

12. Spend money on things

Are you sure you need that high-end phone? Spend your money to go to theaters, restaurants or save to travel where you’ve always dreamed of when you go on vacation. Collect knowledge not things.

13. Not forgiving old friends

Some people, after just one disagreement or fight, stop talking to certain friends and close themselves off from people for life. Make amends: Life is too short to harbor resentments and bad feelings.

14. Not taking care of your teeth

A toothbrush and dental floss will cost much less than complicated treatment at a dentist. And a prosthesis is not such a nice thing, is it?

15. Not being able to stop and enjoy the moment

16. Worrying about things that didn’t happen

You worry about hundreds of little things and events that will never happen. Is it worth wasting your time on fictitious concerns?

17. Being ashamed of public speaking

Almost everyone is afraid or apprehensive of public speaking. But, possibly, at least once in your life you will have to overcome this fear and perform in front of a large number of people, even if it is in karaoke and you do not know how to sing.

18. Not attending official events

Obviously, this will sound a bit opportunistic. However, experience shows that maintaining relationships with “useful” contacts is very important for the successful development of a professional career. Also, you never know who you might meet or meet at these events; maybe, exactly that person will help you find your dream job.

19. Not laughing at yourself

Don’t take yourself so seriously. Sometimes knowing how to laugh at yourself gives you the opportunity to look at facts or events in a different way and maybe help you not to make the same mistakes in the future.

20. Being afraid to express your feelings

We are often afraid to tell people what we are feeling at a given moment, we feel angry and keep it, we do not admit to loving someone for fear of being rejected or we do not tell people close to us how much some attitudes or words have offended us. Do not fear. Admit your love, your feelings, even if you are afraid to hear a “no”.
