✨Shoot 4 the stars⭐
I am 39 years old. ~ Have grand dreams and pursue them relentlessly.
Love your videos! So inspiring. They show me what matters at the end of the day and bring me back to myself and to what really is important - loved ones, self care and a sense of belonding. Thank you!
I just turned 50. I want to say spend time thanking the lord that he has carried me for so long, forgive and move on without holding grudges because that gives lot of peace, don't give up on your dreams yet because it ain't over till God says it's over.
greatest regret: to forgive too much for your family member from the abuse that continued into adulthood, who tried to prevent you to have your own life, isolating you from other teenagers, never been able to grow up as normal kid. In my adulthood ...after regaining memories from the worst abuse understood that my parent never cared about anybody he just hurt everyone around him he need people around him to blame from all of his suffering, not t aking responsibility and trying to fix himself, he harass people till they leave and still talk shit about them " its their fault ". 5 years ago I left and cut ties from my pedofile dad who were also physically and financially violent tried to take over my life. sometimes your parent dont deserve your time, save your life from their horror. I feel nothing for him, we are not blood relatives in my book just annoying voice in the past that I tell " shut the fuck up " so my advice: be wise who you let in your life and who you keep. Its okay to throw your parents away if they are abusive. If they are unable to forgive and learn from mistakes they gonna just use the words " sorry " to have permission to continue their abuse. they dont care about you I stopped caring about other people after this and now focusing on my own goals while being ruthless to who Im giving my time: NEVER feel sorry to have boundaries! if they get butthurt then they are likely abusers themselves remember! abusers try to break your sense of self, identity, your dreams.. people without identity, personality and resources are easier to manipulate so yes this is why its totally okay to be ruthless when you deal with people :)
To the 50 year old who’s dream is and was to become an actor… go for it you still have plenty of time. Don’t give up on your dreams. Dreams don’t die, we do. You can start off an an extra and you never know where that may take you! What’s the worst that happens, you don’t get as far as you wished to? Best of luck, Go For It, TIME IS NOT UP!
It’s “whose,” not “who’s.” 🙂
Haha, that’s right, there was that “where’s the beef” lady. 😂 That was a funny commercial. Now that you mentioned her, I’m gonna Google her.
That was so kind and made me tear up. Holy hell, very kind words 🥲
That's right. It's never too late.
@@theobsidiancomplexofficial7318I’ve done a lot of work over the past 5 years on my mindset and I love helping people and sharing what I’ve learned.
I absolutely love listening and talking to the elders, it’s like reading a book that’s come to life, they have the most wonderful stories and lessons.
This. ❤
Life is short, especially as we get older time feels like it is speeding up.
Find your passion😊 and do what you love, educate yourself,😊 eat healthy, 😊 exercise and😊 enjoy a social life.😊 Dont worry be happy.😊
I'm a 67 year old Montrealer... about to retire in 2024. Very timely video! Thanks for making them and sharing them with us.
Sprouht: "What's like to be born?" Baby: * instant crying for a few seconds * Sprouht: "Good point"
I'm a 50 year-old gay man and had this discussion with my mum, just 2 days ago. So, the advice I would give to a stranger would be, get rid of the things you do to make other people happy and focus on what makes YOU happy. That's the key to a healthy, happy life, and the only way in which you can take care of people around you. Also, have NO expectations; take things as they come, make the most of them and build on them, build on these experiences, to build a happy life.
I am a gay man in my early 30s and couldn't agree more 😊
well said ! And dont stress about small things, embrace life and worry as little as possible. worrying is such a waste of time :)
60 tiii...stay in a good condicions and try to be not I'll mentally and physically
I’m 64 and the biggest regret I have is divorcing my first husband, I hope he is living a happy life, I will always love him.
You should travel to different parts of the world and ask these amazing questions to them as well. Wishes from India.
Wonderful and inspiring video as always! Thank you for an amazing work! I'm 28 guy and my advice would be cherish your *time* and *health* prioritize yourself and loved ones, learn how to say "no", but always treat others like you would treat yourself.
to learn how to say "no" is a big skill. I can't do it yet. how did you managed to learn it?
What a great video! That 12 year old worrying about viruses and war broke my heart though.
A child should not worry about serious issues. Sadly, government schools present serious issues.
How adorable is that little boy that answered he’s “perfect,” and said he’d tell the person that’s sad “I love you.” Wow, too cute! I have too many regrets and really wish I was never born.
Everyone has regrets. Forgive yourself and others. We all learn from our mistakes, not from our successes! GOD LOVES YOU! GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO LOVE AND APPRECIATE, WHO YOU ARE! YOU DID THE BEST YOU COULD! LOVE AND BLESSINGS!
To crystally lavender,the lord Jesus Can make a tremendous differance in your life,he did mine.talk to him just like you would talk to your best friend, ask him if he is real.invite him into your life,he wont just push his way in .you have to invite him. Talk to him realy UNLOAD UPON HIM. you wont regret it .he can make your life so different you will hardly recognize it.change it to something you just love.hes in that business, that his specialty. Give it a try,what do you have to loose, just be real with him, you might find that when you try you cry,thats ok just do it. Jesus will forgive anything from your past i promise and i mean ANYTHING.go ahead now.
love the talks with the younger kids. no issues, worries yet. One of the biggest regrets I've had was getting married. Still have my kids but not get married. thanks for sharing.
I don’t believe that people should have children without a union of the man and woman
@@Jane5720Luckily your beliefs don’t apply to others. ❤
Amen, having a family, loving little people is underrated. I will never regret having my three girls, and my only regret is I'm now 41, and I wish I had more.
Awesome when a 3 yr old said I’m perfect😍 Thanks for sharing…
Making Mistakes, learning from them, experiencing ups and downs -> all these make life interesting. As opposed to asking “why me” few years ago, I have learnt to appreciate that mistakes, problems, intense emotions are what make me appreciate happy moments when they happen. Love this rich colorful tapestry of life.
At 20 years old I was a new mom and I was not thinking about that I didn't feel like an adult like so many 20 year olds nowadays. I think we've extended the age of adolescents in this culture.
Regret is a fantasy… in that we imagine what we could do if we could go back… but we can’t… so all that can happen from regret is rumination and punishment or projection. It IS good to remember our mistakes so that we don’t do them again! Guilt is a loving guide for protection (for ourselves and others) and growth. Shame a liar that tries to bind mistakes to our very being.
Thank you, Will. It’s wonderful you’re doing this, truly inspiring, you should be proud. Thank you 🙏
2:23 that hits home so hard than it should , that's how i feel right now ...i'm bout to turn 19 in two months , hoping to find myself soon
Your videos feel like a meditation, very calming, insightful and grounding.
You who reading this,i wish you success in this life and in the hereafter,peace be upon all the prophets and messengers of the CREATOR.
I loved this, especially the 94 year old's interview at the end!
Mistakes and regrets are 2 different things. I am 68 years old. I was married twice. Both marriages were mistakes, but I have no regrets. I learned from both experiences and have made better decisions since.
Thanks for everything.keep sharing😊
Thank you soo much from these interviews!!! They have been soo nice!!😊😊😊
What a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing.❤
Great work and great video!
I appreciate and enjoy your well produced videos. Keep up your excellent work!
The work this channel does is gods work
Such a great and touching video. I love the perspective of each generation. It’s awesome to see the diversity of people in your videos as well. At the end of the day, we’re all just humans and have one thing in common.. trying to navigate through life the best we can. My advice as a 23 year old who’s done tremendous amounts of self work and still trying to improve myself.. just live your life that is true to yourself. Work hard towards your dreams but take the risk once in a while, whether big or small. Your dreams could be on the other side of that risk!! And most importantly, live in the moment and present. This is a moment in your life you’ll most likely never get back, feel every emotion and thought as it crosses your mind. The present moment is the most important time of your life. Cherish the moments that happen right now. Cheers
I really loved the video and the reflection it brings!!! Thank you!!!
I love watching your videos! Thank you for this beautiful content❤️
What an amazing conclusion... It made me drop a tear of emotion
19:33 "what if we just forgot about our mistakes" That's exactly how you get more regrets. The point is to learn from your mistakes.
I think the point is this: if regrets don’t matter in the beginning & in the end, then why dwell & let it bring down your happiness in the core of your life. Yes, you live and learn.. but in the end, you’ll wish you spent less time worrying about the bad & more time appreciating the good.
@@ryanbonnette6166i wish you a wonderfull life from Morocco,have a nice day ryan
Excellent channel sir

Wonderful video thank you for it
I actually subscribed yesterday, and am happy I did, have been following him for a long time without subscribing,he’s changed so many lives and he’s destined for more success.
Amazing content Will!
Very good video! Thanks for sharing this stories. We usually to have regrets about the things that we did, but all that mistakes gave you the version of yourself that you are today. We are in a continue growing process. Learn about everything and keep going!
I enjoyed listening all these interviews ❤❤❤
I needed that!
I'm 48 years old now, and still looking for an onderfore future on rest of my lives,cuz I know only consistently pay higher respection on myself could make no regrets , right now I'm makeing several travel plans to every country around the world, experience all different things, learn all of different languages, embrace various life, and fulfill my rest of lives!
This was beautiful
Great video!
Thankyou very interesting 😊
thank you for doing this
This video is precious (and of course so is the whole channel)
Interesting question. I love this channel.
26 here and I will scream it from the roof tops: there’s so much pressure to just “pick something” and go to college… I will always suggest looking at what could lead to a stable career and what won’t put you into massive debt. I worked my tail off in school, maintained a 4.0, presidents list, etc etc and none of that work and debt amounted to anything in that field. I burned up all my youthful, fresh out of high school energy on a program that led to nothing but debt because I felt I had to pick something i would enjoy. I went to school for graphic design and then again for teaching. I now work in insurance. It hurts knowing I wasted all that time and money and I can’t even afford the graphic design apps needed anymore
Wonderful video.
Love these ❤ if not already, can you do one on peoples best decision they’ve made in their life
I loved your series of interviews and how.people spoke so honestly. The Japanese man who lost his father but keeps his father alive by using his father's standards impacted me greatly. As did the guy who wanted to be an actor and then compromised.
THIS VIDEO WAS A TRUE WORK OF ART. LOVE YOUR CONCLUSION ABOUT LETTING GO OF REGRET. EACH PERSON YOU INTERVIEWED HAD A SPECIAL GIFT TO SHARE ABOUT THEIR LIFE EXPERIENCE. IT WAS SO FASCINATING TO SEE HOW PERSONAL YET UNIVERSAL EACH LIFE EXPERIENCE IS. EVERYONE INTERVIEWED WAS SO UNIQUE AND TRULY LOVELY! THAMK YOU!
Agreeing to this interview....
LOVE YOUR CONTENT BRO
Great video! I should comment and say this more often. You earn the like and comments, easily, and many people would benefit by watching your videos. I should be doing my part in getting these out to more people. Thank you for this and all of your content!
Nobody is perfect we all mess up and learn afterwards or never learn that's Life.
I regret nothing.. Every lesson was a gift, a chance to evolve. It was all perfect, because that's what happened.
Awesome ❤
Hey, that video you made inspired me a lot at some points. Woah, I can't believe that you interview some Japanese. Thank you.
amazing video
Excellent
I was mentally much stronger than i gave myself credit for ....trust in Your God much more than you do .
thank this video，I get a lot of experience from that，it inspires me😃
There are no mistakes.There are circumstances and character. JUST NATURE. Does not seek truths, because they're under the condition of each individual person. Look only for facts and act according to the facts and your personal truth. Your biggest job is to eliminate all the fears you have Your hardest work is to achieve physical health , mental strength to achieve what you need. Study to acquire skills and knowledge because that are your platform for your personal freedom. That's what all these amazing people tell us in your interviews. They also say many other fundamental thinks. I thank you for your efort and passion.
I'm 24 , and my advice is not to live your life led by fear
I LOVE THIS❤
I really like this content
Wow thanks
Great video! Makes you think about self reflect and whatever is in the past to leave it in the past. Some things can't be changed or taken back when so much time/years have passed. Important to be kind and a better person as we age. Mistakes are made even when we don't realize it was a mistake till it is too late. We also mentally stress ourselves with "should of or could of" thinking back with regrets. We are human with dealing with life as it goes with a future that is uncertain. Not everyone can achieve life goals depending on life circumstances like financial stability and opportunity. Life is tricky at times with lots of decisions. I too have made mistakes with regret but must learn to not dwell on the past and move forward however best you can. Life is short and time passes too quickly. Enjoy being alive.
So true!
To lillylee and when were done with this life we live here,we.have another one we go into where there is no sickness,we dont age , there is no night time (darkness) no wars, all good no bad ,personally I cant hardly wait for that
Wow,am 28 am about to quit my job to follow my dream and passion .When am 50 I will be proud of the decision am about to take ❤
Amazing.
Merci infiniment شكرا كثيرا
It’s not what you don’t know that hurts you; it’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so!
If you're in your twilight years, you kinda just let go and enjoy the remaining time that you have. Regrets are for young people who are still learning and going thru the trials and tribulations of life.
Beautiful ❤
This is amazing conteent
YOUR BIGGEST KENYAN FAN, SUBSCRIBER, LIKER, COMMENTER RIGHT HERE, AS USUAL, 04/12/2023
I'm 59 and regrets are toxic to me. I'm renewing my effort to just realize I've already learned from my mistakes and just do what makes me feel the happiest. I must admit my behavior is closer to being a good person in all my thoughts and behaviors then at any time in my life. So I guess regrets help steer you, just don't live there.
Your health can be so bad it can stop you doing the things you want to do. Care as your health is your wealth ❤
Only two minutes in, already tearing up
Not everybody grows a family. There are different ways to live a life😏

Dont give up my friend,keep moving forward,your life is precious,you are amazing
Sending love and hugs to you. Life will work out. It always has and will always do. You’ve suffered but you’ll enjoy soon. Don’t give up yet. Life has an amazing way to surprise you.
Any advice for a guy who is 19 yr old and who worry too much about his future and worries about finding his love ?
Thank you for the video, I found out that investing is not for everybody, you just need a strong stomach too see your portfolio go down. It might be wiser for a novice to start with copy trading investing, but it is not easy. To invest in growth stocks it is another level, definitely you need to know what are you doing.
From my own point of view, you need to invest smartly if you need the good things of life. so far i've made over $255k in raw profits from just 6 months into the market from my diversified portfolio strategy and i believe anyone can do it you have the right strategy, mutual funds takes long time but investing smartly is the key for short term. Most of us tend to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market to the cost of proper diversification.
I've been solely investing in real estate. But with the recent hyper home pricing i've liquidated a few things and have $45k in cash laying around idle. Would love to get your recommendations, I'm in search of something lucrative in the current crazy markets, i will be glad.
My portfolio is very much diversified so it's not like i have a particular fund i invest in, plus i dont do that by myself. i follow the trades of Mrs Karen Gaye Gray.
She is a popular broker you might have heard of. I can correctly say she's worth her salt as a financial advisor as her diversification skills are top notch, because i see that in her results as my portfolio grows by averages of 10 to 15% on a monthly basis, unlike i can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along, my portfolio just mirrors what she trades and not just on some particular industries of my choosing.
By following her trades do you mean copying her trades? I have heard about copying trades
I agree
1:32 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
At 42, I have far too many regrets. Now I am so depressed that nothing seems enjoyable anymore.
2:18 she look and seem like a 18 years old in 20th century (i mean she reached adulthood at 18)
I wish he would tell us what country he is in, in these videos? I love the accents😄
unless you have a disease that prevents you to use your arms and hands, to the one who regrets not having learned an instrument : GO FOR IT (I am a guitar teacher) ! there is no age limit to learn and play an instrument ... to those who don't have kids yet, a simple fact : at the age of 55 y/o you will have spent 90% of the total number of days you are going to spend with your family and kids during your entire life. 90% ! From the age of 55 y/o until your death you only will have left 10% of the total number of days you will spend with your family and kids, 10% ! I am 59 and my main regret is not to having spent enough times with my kids when they were young ... that time is GONE for EVER ... don't do the same mistake, don't run after money, instead spend time with your family and enjoy your kids and your life ... materialism is a disasease, those who mention that their regrets is not to having make more money during their life ... they do not understand what's important in life ... they will ... the day they will die and obviously it will be too late...
