“You don’t deny regrets, but instead, you can take those regrets you may have as an individual, or as a community, or as a country, and you put them back into the past with your imagination. Once you put them back into the past, you imagine what you could have done then if you had made the right choice, you take that wisdom of the present and speak to your old self. You change your destiny in your heart so that you can better live the wisdom in the present. We can say who we are and who we will be.”

Regret, while painful at times, is a key part of positive change. Those who do not regret anything are sociopaths. But constant and perpetual regret damages as well. Regret, when properly channeled, can be a central part of personal and social change.

By using psychological and neuroscience studies and an excerpt from the timeless film “Shawshank Redemption” and Morgan Freeman's immortal words, Dr. Marc Gopin shows us how the method of looking into the past with the wisdom of the present can shift the thought pattern of our minds away from a place of anxiety, anger, and depression, to instead become a place of learning, optimism, and adaptation.
