Publisher's summary

We have all done things that we regret and felt guilty, angry, or sad about. These emotional reactions, and the experience of regret in general, are not necessarily bad. In fact, they are evidence that we have a moral code or a sense of ethics that defines us.

Instead, it is our response to regret that often causes unnecessary problems. Guilt and related negative emotions are stagnant. But you don’t need to be ruled by guilt and what has passed. We must learn to respond to the feelings of guilt and regret in more appropriate ways.

This audiobook will help you take necessary steps to gain the capacity for proactive action. You don't have to waste any more time beating yourself up over what has already happened; Instead, your mind and emotions need to be free to focus on what really matters in the present.

In this audiobook, I'm going to help you reflect more realistically on what you need to forgive yourself for, and why you have a right to forgive yourself. It's going to be an organic and concerted effort originating from your own thoughts, but I can help you get there.

By understanding how each mistake serves a purpose as a learning experience, you will no longer allow your past actions to limit the extent to which you change for the better and move forward in life. Once you learn how to adopt this perspective, it will stay with you, continually benefiting you and those around you. Ultimately, from this experience, you will feel lighter and more peaceful as a result of finally being able to live in the present.

Let's get started!

No fillers... only information

sticks to the subject and does not veer. great points. short book, but all we need sometimes is to hear what we already know.

Sooooo worth it. Just 30 minutes and less than the cost of a cup of coffee!

Been looking for a book like this that directly addresses how to move on and why you should move on after f*#!Ing up.

Very well written. I like how not to equate a bad action or choice from the past with my overall identity.

I like the examples and I can relate to them from what my therapist and I have discussed. I wish it was a longer book

Guaranteed to provide insight on your negative thoughts

I had a shameful/ guilty moment at work. This book gave me realistic information to input in place of my self identification with the mistake.

A lot of help in a brief listening

To the point, but sufficiently clear. Immediately helpful! Will return to listen if I ruminate.

Short, to the point and simple

The narrator has a soothing voice. The audiobook gets to the point and I like that it was short and simple. It is very meaningful and I will take what I learned from this book and put into action.
