The Power of Regret

€13.19

Drawing from new research in social psychology, neuroscience, biology and more, as well as from more than 10,000 people in 35 countries around the world who responded to his ‘World Regret Survey’ – the largest of its kind ever conducted – Pink challenges the idea of regret being a drag on our self-esteem and outlook. In fact, understanding how regret actually works and using those insights to reframe our perspective of it will help us reclaim regret as an indispensable emotion that can help us make smarter decisions, perform better at work and school and bring greater meaning to our lives. Pink sets down a dynamic new way of thinking about regret and frames his ideas in ways that are clear, accessible and pragmatic.

Everybody has regrets. They're a fundamental part of our lives. In The Power of Regret, Pink explains how we can enlist our regrets to make smarter decisions, perform better and deepen our sense of meaning and purpose.

Drawing on the largest sampling of attitudes about regret ever conducted from his own World Regret Survey, Pink identifies the four core regrets that most people have. With his signature blend of big ideas and practical takeaways, captivating stories and crisp humour, he argues that by understanding what people regret the most, we can understand what they value the most. We can transform our regrets into a positive force for working smarter and living better.
