I’ve got it!!!!

formula for regret:

Future Negative Possibilities + Fears  = Present(regretful) Decisions

                                 (or)

               FNP             +             FR     =        PD
                                    

And this is a very important formula that can be useful as we live our lives everyday. the very formula that might prevent us from those days where all we do is ask ourselves the unrhetorical question "What if?", a formula that might help us live a more happy life, and in a way where we can say that we are in control of our life, and what the future holds. 

Still don’t get it?

Well lets put it this way…One way or another we all face those situations where theres too much emotions involved in a certain decision to be made… whether to say yes or no to a suitor… to make a move and court an admired person or just be friends (sounds familiar?)… to quit a job and find another, to choose which job… to cheat.. not to cheat… to go abroad hope for greener pastures in life, to be a priest or sister, or to indulge ones self in politics, or simply to move towards a direction on ones life,…  and as I studied and experienced most of these situations, I’ve noticed one thing. I’ve noticed that every time we face these types of situations, we always look too much forward that in our minds we always tend to ask what would happen if such actions are taken, and at the first or initial part of this phase, we always see the  positive things about it …. then as we think of it more….a bit of the formula shows…. I’m talking about the negative things that possibly would happen which would later on develop fear in such  decisions to be made…. I guess it’s the law of nature that we always notice the negative more than the positive… and it’s the very same thing that is very essential to this formula.. because every time our imagination bends towards the negative aspects of it, it always affects what our decision would be…. in short ladies and gentlemen,  the basic formula of regret is that whenever we are faced with these  situations, often times (if not always) we let the negative possibilities of the future develop fear and dictate our decision in the present…. when instead it should be the present who should dictate what will happen in the future… and until we keep on falling for this formula we will never gain control of our lives… And we will always have regrets.

My intention towards writing this is to make sense in something that can be useful… one way or another… and maybe, just maybe it would someday help you understand life more…live it the way we should… gain control of our lives and find our own lucks and direction and maybe soon there will be less regrets… and maybe there will be less "huhuhu" in our text messages… : )
