Bronnie Ware had the opportunity to learn about a lot of people’s regrets. As a palliative nurse, she cared for those in the last three to twelve weeks of their lives. The most common regrets she encountered:
- I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
- I wish I didn’t work so hard.
- I wish I had the courage to express my true feelings.
- I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
- I wish I had let myself be happier.
