Regret (penyesalan) adalah emosi negatif berkaitan dgn menyalahkan diri sendiri. E.g., apa yg telah kita lakukan, a choice we made, or even sesuatu yg kita alami or experienced.

Kenapa kita perlu embrace regret?

Kalau kita tak embrace, we won't move on. Sebab tu bila I talk about things, I selalu mula dgn talk about acceptance. Acceptance is importance. Kita perlu acknowledge what happened, and feel that regret!

Mcm mana nak embrace regret? Ada dua cara.

First, embracing it positively. Kita menyesal akan sesuatu, tapi kita emphasize on what can we do next. Kalau boleh betulkan keadaan, we do that. Kalau tak boleh, have the mindset of not doing it again & try to be better

Second method, embracing it negatively. Ianya adalah bila kita dwell on it, terlalu fokus on the outcome, self-blame non-stop, fikir too much, but tak pernah nak think about how to improve and do better. This is bad!

So, the best way, embrace it positively.

Tak bolehkah kalau kita just be in denial?

Sure, boleh. But kita tak akan improve and be better. Kita akan repeat such thing again, or do similar actions. Sebab tu it is better to embrace regret in a positive manner.

Ada kesan buruk kalau embrace regret negatively?

Ada! Bila kita do it negatively, then kita akan do self-blame non-stop. Boleh mengakibatkan low self-esteem, stress, depression, and so on yg tak baik.

Thread 6 of 8
So what can we do?

Seperti yg saya katakan, accept it. Embrace it positively. Menyesal tapi tak berpanjangan sehingga fikir bukan2 and do self-blame. Menyesal but kena fikir what can we do next. Jangan diam or stuck at that stage tak move on. That is unhealthy
