9 Ways to Live Your Life Without Any Regrets
6. Step out of your comfort zone
If you love to be in your comfort zone, you may have a comfortable life, but not necessarily a happy one; and most certainly not one without regrets. In your comfort zone, you are not pushing yourself, you are not feeling awkward or uneasy, and unless you feel those things, you do not really live life. Do things you have never done before. If you want to learn singing, learn it. If you always wanted to play the guitar, join a class. If you do not know how to swim and have always been alone on the shore while your friends enjoyed in the water, go and learn swimming – shed off your discomfiture, make yourself vulnerable and become a more interesting person.
7. Live in the present
Your life is what you are doing in the present. Not your past, not your future, but only your present. It is only the present that matters, and nothing else. So stop thinking about the mistakes you made in your past; stop being anxious about your future, and live life in the present moment, as that will rid you of futile regrets and worries, and make your life worth living.
8. Follow your bliss
No matter how much a cliché it sounds like, but the path to true happiness is indeed your own bliss. Do what you love, and you will love what you do – it is that simple! Do the things that give you unprecedented happiness, and your life will become wonderful.
9. Never give up
Last but not the least: never ever give up. Remember that while there may be several options in your life as to what you must and must not do, giving up is never an option. The moment you give up, you lose track of happiness because it adds on to the several regrets that you may have in life—and that will only make you feel more and more bitter. Pledge to never quit and you will have guaranteed happiness for yourself.
