Episode notes

When we think about our lives, what gives it wholeness are other people. And when those relationships come apart, it feels bad. Our instinct is not to reach out because we think it's going to be uncomfortable. This reminds me of a story from thomas s. Monson, the former president of the church of jesus christ of latter day saints. He was really known the world over for service, for human connection.

How often have you heard someone say they want to live their life with no regrets?

Our society often teaches us that a successful life is one lived without regrets. But in his new book The Power of Regret: How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward, best-selling author Dan Pink offers a different perspective. Regret, he suggests, is a valuable raw material that allows us to learn from our mistakes and make the imperfect more perfect.

In this week's episode, Dan shares five counterintuitive ways you can use regret to your advantage and design a life that really matters.
