I have been following the Lifehack site ever since its inception and every once in a while they post an ultimate gem. The following list of regrets that people have before they die really resonates with me because in my pursuit of being an intentional father I am so aware of the notion of modelling the following values, characteristics and priorities in ones life:
- Caring too much about what other people think
- Not accomplishing enough
- Not telling someone how you truly felt
- Not standing up for yourself more
- Not following your passion in life
- Arguing with your loved ones all the time
- Not growing the children to be who they wanted to be
- Not living more in the moment enough
- Working too much
- Traveling too little
- Listening to everyone else
- Not taking good care of yourself
- Not willing to take risks
- Having little time
- Worrying too much
- Not appreciating enough
- Spending little time with family
- Taking yourself too seriously
- Not doing enough for other people
- Feeling sad all the time
