Summary

Regret is not dangerous or abnormal, it is healthy and universal, an integral part of being human," Daniel H. Pink writes in his provocative and eye-opening new book. And understanding how regret works can help us make smarter decisions, perform better at work and school, and bring greater meaning to our lives. Drawing on research in social psychology, neuroscience, and biology, Pink debunks the myth of the 2no regrets3 philosophy of life. And using the largest sampling of American attitudes about regret ever conducted as well as his own World Regret Survey{u2014}which has collected regrets from more than 15,000 people in 105 countries{u2014}he lays out the four core regrets that each of us has. These deep regrets offer compelling insights into how we live and how we can find a better path forward. Packed with true stories of people's regrets as well as practical takeaways for reimagining regret as a positive force, The Power of Regret shows how we can live richer, more engaged lives
