“In a study on the top ten regrets of the dying, relationship issues accounted for half of the major regrets.
People said things like, “I should have said ‘I love you’ a lot more,” and “I worked too much and never made time for my family.” If we want to avoid regrets at the end of our lives, we must not wait until we’re close to death to prioritize relationships over work, status, and other things that don’t contribute as much to our ultimate happiness.”
