“Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”
Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

Rephrase that as “I wish I’d worked harder” and I suppose it’d be a not uncommon death bed regret. For those disposed towards spending a few last moments thinking about stuff they should have done differently.
Education is extremely important.

Could have been a simple bulleted list, maybe a table if they want to categorize those deathbed sayings. But no, it has to be paragraphs and paragraphs of mostly superfluous words. So I choose not to read it. I doubt I'd regret this decision.

I don’t think it’s a deathbed approach to life, but I think we often go through our days as if we’re immortal.
Remembering that we only have a finite number of weekend trips, or get-togethers with a dear friend or extended family member, etc. is important to make time for people that matter.

No, those aren't the same thing at all. I frequently wish that I'd worked harder at university, in large part so that I could spend less time in the office. Well, this office at least.

I’ve never really believed a death bed perspective translates well to a normal day to day perspective.
