The chance you passed up or missed could have had any number of different outcomes, and it's easy to fantasize about how much better every one of those outcomes would have been.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think I could look back through the past few years at missed opportunities and stuff, but one thing I have learned is not to dwell on missed chances or times where you have failed.
The use of chance operations opened out my way of working. The body tends to be habitual. The use of chance allowed us to find new ways to move and to put movements together that would not otherwise have been available to us. It revealed possibilities that were always there except that my mind hadn't seen them.
I'm very conscious of the luck I've had. It's important to have this in your mind and remember it.
I couldn't possibly have any regrets, because I've been very lucky, I've been celebrated, and I've survived. I couldn't have one single regret. That would be absurd.
At the end of your life, you will never regret not having passed one more test, not winning one more verdict or not closing one more deal. You will regret time not spent with a husband, a friend, a child, or a parent.
I think many experiences are bound to be failures, and sometimes I regret them before they even happen.
I never thought of myself as unlucky. When you aim high, it's tough to get there unless something really fortunate happens.
Sometimes I think I could have got some better results if I had a different mentality; if I could have pushed hard and attacked. But then I would have had a good chance of making a mistake.
It doesn't matter what odds are on paper or what's happened before. It matters what happens that moment.
Everything happens to me. I've never had a streak of luck in my life.
