Nah, I don't live with regrets. How? I keep in mind the context of who I was when I made those choices. What I did know and what I did not yet know. Regret doesn't provide support or motivation, so by reflecting on past choices with mindfulness of the context, I don't bring regret into my life.

I'm constantly struggling to meet my own expectations and suffering burnout. This also got paired with toxic positivity, except, it's always my own responsibility to improve and do better. I spiraled into denial that other people are capable of making mistakes; if something went wrong, I ask "how do I improve the situation?" instead of recognizing "do I need to do something differently and is this actually my responsibility?"

Life will get better if you balance your expectations of others and of yourself. Do not focus on putting more burden on yourself.
