Shaw. Life was good. Then, he got an ideaโ€”an online bookstore. When he told his boss, David Shaw, the response was logical: "Itโ€™s a good idea, but better for someone without a great job." Most people would have stayed. Why risk everything for the unknown? But Bezos thought differently. He used what he later called the Regret Minimization Frameworkโ€”a simple question: "When Iโ€™m 80, will I regret not doing this?" The answer was clear: If he tried and failed? No regrets. If he never tried? It would haunt him forever. So, he quit. Started Amazon. Changed history. Now, think about your own life: Are you stuck in comfort because itโ€™s safe? Will your future self regret not taking the leap? Failures fade. Regrets last forever. When in doubt, take the 80-Year-Old Test. Your future self will thank you.

When your obsession isn't strong enough to cause compulsion, you end up having regrets. I know those out there struggling to follow their hearts are suffering. Have faith! At least you won't have the pain of regret.
