22. The Pain of Regret Is Realizing You Waited for Permission That Was Never Needed
How many dreams die while waiting for someone to say, “You’re ready”? Regret is the sting that comes when you realize you didn’t need anyone’s permission but your own. You waited for the perfect time, the perfect plan, the perfect approval. But none of it ever came. Now, looking back, you see it clearly: the gate was always open—you just never walked through. And that missed moment becomes a scar you carry long after the door has closed.
