There is the temptation to leave it all up to fate. A foolish attempt to calm the mind, heart and soul, by believing that it is all on the predestined path that we are supposed to thread through. It answers the questions that linger, and bring a closure to the uncertain or unsure. Time and time again it worked for many, for a select few, they do much more.
These select few are self-critical and analyse the external/internal factors that contributed towards an occurrence. Understanding why it happened, how it happened, and what could be done to make the experience better. It is this conscientiousness that makes for a more meaningful lifestyle, bringing a deeper meaning to existence and understanding the relevance or consequences of actions to the present and future. In other words, it allows for the learning from mistakes.
Reflection during these moments may bring up feelings of regret. Now, regret is good. It teaches and creates an emotional imprint in the mind saying that it was not a good decision. And also this regret, would mean that at one point of time in life, there is the ability to choose one from the other(s) creating the mentality that we can mould our own destiny. Life is in your hands.
It is always the case dreading the feeling of mulling over decisions, choices and options. Even more so when there is not much time. But think about it. It is the gift of "Will to Choose" that gives us the ability to decide for ourselves whether we will be successful or otherwise in the future.
