How to Fill Your Life With Regret
Are you tired of seeing all those peppy guides on how to live your best life? Feeling overwhelmed by the endless positivity and success stories? Well, you’re in luck! Here’s a comprehensive guide to filling your life with regret.
Follow these steps, and you’ll soon be looking back on your life with a healthy dose of “What was I thinking?” Let's dive in!
Work, Work, Work
Your career is the cornerstone of your existence. Devote all your time and energy to it, even if it means sacrificing quality time with loved ones. This is an important step towards a life filled with regret.
Work as hard as you can to acquire more money, status, and achievements. Abundant wealth and prestige signal to others that you are worthy, which in turn should make you feel fulfilled.
Let's be real. Whoever said "Money doesn't buy happiness" just didn't have enough...
Avoid Self-Care
Why bother with self-care when you can thrive on Big Macs and minimal sleep? Skip the gym, forget running, and let your couch become your best friend. You don't need mental health days either because stress builds character 😤.
Soon, you'll master the art of powering through each day with caffeine, anxiety, and sheer willpower.
Ignore Your Passions
Have a burning desire to paint? Love writing slam poetry? Perfect! Make sure you completely ignore all of those passions. By never pursuing what you truly love, you will build a future full of missed opportunities and unfulfilled visions.
Stay in Your Comfort Zone
Why take risks when you can stay perfectly safe in your comfort zone? Avoid new experiences because you might not be good at it. Shun new challenges because you could fail, and failure is never an option. Stick to what is familiar, even if it makes you miserable.
Soon enough, your mind will be overflowing with regret, all within the tiny confines of your self-imposed sanctuary.
Life on Autopilot
Design life? Intentional living? Are you living a life that resonates with your core values? These are tough questions. Thinking is hard, and your life is busy. It's easier to coast on autopilot as the years fly by.
Live to Please, Not to Be True
Make it your life's mission to ensure everyone around you admires you, even if it means suppressing your true self. With enough effort, you can make everyone like you and approve of everything you do.
Sacrifice your authenticity to fit the mold that others have crafted for you, and let their expectations dictate your life choices.
No Time For Fun
We're serious adults doing serious things. Fun is frivolous and unnecessary. Who needs laughter and joy when you can focus on important, grown-up tasks?
Remember, play is for children. Your life should be a testament to unwavering seriousness and relentless productivity. 💼
Neglect Relationships
Don’t make any effort to nurture friendships or spend time with loved ones. You're busy doing more important things. Simply wait for them to reach out instead. Isolation and loneliness are excellent ingredients for a regret-filled life.
