The 10 Human Regrets

As Jean Giraudoux  rightly said, "Only the mediocre die always at their best. Real leaders are always improving -  raising their bar on how superbly they can perform and how quickly they can move." 

In this of period economic uncertainty, the loss of potentials could be avoided if we all come to the realization of these 10 Human Regrets and avoid them at all cost. Thus, we would have  tapped into the very best version of ourselves before we reach our last day.

Below are the 10 Human Regrets: 

1. You reach your last day with the brilliant song that your life was meant to sing still silent within you. 
2. You reach your last day without ever having experienced the natural power that inhabits you to do great work and achieve great things. 
3. You reach your last day realizing that you never inspired anyone else by the example that you set. 


4. You reach your last day full of pain at the realization that you never took any bold risk and so you never received any bright reward. 
5. You reach your last day understanding that you missed the opportunity to catch the glimpse of mastery because you bought into the lie that you had to be resigned to mediocrity.
6. You reach your last day and feel heartbroken that you never learned the skill of transforming adversity into victory and lead into gold.


7. You reach your last day regretting that you forgot that work is about being radically helpful to others rather than being helpful only to yourself.
8. You reach your last day with the awareness that you ended up living the life that society trained you to want versus leading the life you truly wanted.
9. You reach your last day and awaken to the fact that you never realized your absolute best nor touched the special genius that you were built to become. 
10. You reach your last day and discover you could have been a leader and left this world so much better than you found it. But you refused to accept that mission because you were just too scared. And so you failed. And wasted a life.
