There are no regrets in life, only experiences. Every experience helps us to be what we can be.

About This Quote

Do not let the failures of others stop you from moving forward. You do not have control over other people’s behavior, but you can control your own behavior. The person who gets into a car and drives to a destination they have chosen is not the one who regrets it later. They are the ones who got into that car because they wanted to see what was out there.

To believe that what happens to us is not our fault is to limit your future. It’s the same as saying, “You can’t win, so why even try?” We have to go for broke every time, no matter how bad things get.
