When a person says, “I made a wrong decision,” the first question I ask is, “How do you know it was wrong?” We only think that we know this after the fact, after we have already acted and seen the result. But from a deeper perspective, there is no such thing as a wrong decision.
We check everything we can, weighing, measuring, thinking, and clarifying, and then we decide and jump. That is all that is required of us. What happens afterward is no longer in our hands. If, after implementation, we suddenly realize, “Everything went wrong, I missed the goal,” there is nothing at all we can do about it. Most importantly, there is no one to blame, especially not oneself.
Self-torment comes from the illusion that we control outcomes. But we do not. Before the action, our work is to examine, decide, and act. After the action, everything belongs to the upper force of nature that envelops our lives. It was this very force that arranged the result, precisely in the form that it assumes. It does not happen by mistake, nor as punishment, but exactly as intended from the beginning.
Therefore, there must be no regrets. Regret means we think something could have happened differently, but this is false. It could not have happened otherwise. The correct inner formula is that “I decide, I act, and the upper force does the rest.”
If we relate what happened to this force, the inner pressure immediately disappears. We stop eating away at ourselves from the inside because we understand that we did everything as was required of us. From that moment on, the result is part of nature’s very own guidance, which is meant to lead us further, even if we do not yet understand how.
To live this way means to live regret free. It is indeed possible to learn how to do so. We should have no regrets about anything, because everything, absolutely everything, is orchestrated from above.
