QUICK BITE: What will you regret when you die?

Escape the nine to five: how to design your career

Imagine getting a call from an elderly person who says:

"I am future you, currently lying on my death bed, and I want to share all the regrets you're going to have in your life, so that you don't make the same mistakes."

What do you think you'll most likely regret at the end of your life?

While we move through our day to day life, we rarely stop and think about what our last days would be like. What might you regret at the end of your life?

We can't talk to our future selves, but in this episode, you can get the next best thing.

>> TAKE HOME CHALLENGE: SUCCESS JOURNAL

Write down at least a one positive experience or success from today. It doesn't have to be anything amazing, even something as simple as sharing a joke with a colleague or opening a door for a stranger.

If you're anything like me, you might come from an upbringing where only the big successes are celebrated. By acknowledging the small successes, it will literally re-wire your brain to think more positively. Keep it by your bedside table (somewhere you won't forget). It's a daily habit that will literally take you 30 seconds each day.
