We would make mistakes in life. That's how we learn.

However, the length of time we take living in the past and mulling over our mistakes is a problem. Like Libba Bray Says 'We all do things we desperately wish we could undo. Those regrets just become part of who we are, along with everything else. To spend time trying to change that, well, it's like chasing chords'.

There are some things I wish I could 'Ctrl-Z' in my life. My choice of education, relationship, actions, work experience, etc. Unfortunately, we can't undo some of these. We just have to conserve our energy on better things: learn from our mistakes, smile and move on.
