Regret is mindless.
People often say "oh, I wish I had chosen that university not this; I wish I hadn't chosen this person but that person; ...."
You see the point is 'there is no way of telling that the other university, the other candidate, the other place (that you could have chosen over your current choice) would have been better/worse or even the same. We can never know unless we try it again. So instead of regretting for our choices, it is time to reflect on what we have learnt by our choices, what we can do to make it better now, what we should do to improve the situation better now.
