Regret Is Fuel, Not Poison

I can't stop wishing I'd done it differently.

That wish is fuel. Burn it in the engine, not in the cabin.

The sting of 'I wish I hadn't' is exactly what powers real change — as long as it drives action instead of just replaying the tape. Feel it, use it, move.

Use it when: Old mistakes resurfacing at 2am, apologies you still owe, chances you missed.

Backed by: 2 Corinthians 7:10 — "godly sorrow worketh repentance... but the sorrow of the world worketh death." Same feeling, two destinations, your choice of engine.

What He’d say

There are two kinds of sorrow: one works change, one just works you over. The sting you feel can drive the engine or fill the cabin with smoke. Bring it to me — I'll show you the engine.

(His words from the passage above, spoken to you.)
