“Regretting things is just complimenting your current judgment”
Agree
- Shows growth and learning
- Means you've evolved past that version
- Self-awareness is progress
- Better judgment recognizes past mistakes
Disagree
- Regret can be unproductive rumination
- Dwelling doesn't equal growth
- Past self deserves compassion not judgment
- You can learn without regret
