5 regrets of the dying
How to avoid them!
Hi,
We often throw away the line, “No regrets”
But do we mean it?
Bronnie Ware worked in palliative care for decades.
She sat with the dying as they faced the end.
And she found a deep love for life.
Bronnie turned the insights she gained into an influential book called.
‘The Top Five Regrets of the Dying’.
This book had a massive impact on me.
It inspired many changes in my life.
Including changing careers from running a brokerage to living the life of a coach.
And on today's podcast, I will deep dive into each of the top five regrets.
But there is one regret I wanted to focus on, and that I struggle with.
“I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.”
There's something magical about spending time with a good friend.
We all know it and feel it.
But I have been guilty of prioritising work over friendships.
So I wanted to share out loud how the top regrets have inspired me to put more effort into my friendships.
Recently, I flew to Ireland to climb a mountain with one of my best mates, and it was a joyful experience.
Just this week, I got to hang out with a friend before he ran the marathon.
Dressed as a Rhino!
On Friday, we have over 100 people joining us for our coach graduation ceremony in London.
This will be full of new connections as our coaches fly in from all over the world to meet in person for the first time, having been on a powerful learning adventure together.
But it’s too easy to let friendships slide away.
Many of us fall into this trap.
We all get so busy.
With family and general life.
And top regret 2:
"I wish I hadn't worked so hard", can zap the time required for friendship.
But there is always time.
Seneca said it best,
“It’s not that we don’t have enough time, it’s just that we waste so much of it”
Here is an important message for us all from those whose time has come to an end.
Stop wasting time on the trivial and unimportant things.
Make time for friendships.
My no-regrets challenge to you is to reach out to one old friend.
Today.
Let me know how it goes.
Your coach
