No Regrets

A loved one
and I find ourselves
in the position
where there’s a break
in each of our schedules.

We’re traveling
during that time.

Will that travel break slow
the build on
the Romance Writing Business?
Yes.

But I know
I’ll regret it
if I don’t take the time
to travel.

When you’re faced
with an opportunity,
ask yourself
if you’ll regret
not taking that opportunity.

If you will regret it,
do everything you can
to make that opportunity
happen.

Live life
with very few regrets.

Will You Regret Not Doing This?

Starting a business
is extremely risky.
Businesses fail
all the time.

Some of your loved ones
will tell you
these harsh truths.
Again and again.

And you might have doubts.
You might be tempted
to put your plans on hold.

What I do
when faced with these kinds
of decisions
is
ask myself,
“At the end of my life,
will I regret not doing this?
Will I always wonder
what could have been?”

If the answer is “Yes”,
I figure out
how to minimize the downside,
how to limit
the potential damage,
and then I do it.

If the answer is “No”,
I don’t do it.
I wait for something,
for an opportunity
I WOULD regret not seizing.

Live life
with as few regrets
as possible.
