Break Free From the Choices That Hold You Back and Step Boldly Into the Life You Were Meant to Live
ABOUT THE BOOK
Every decision shapes a direction. Some choices move us forward, others leave us stuck, and a few create regrets that echo for years. Living Above Regret: Decisions that Define Your Destiny is a powerful guide for anyone ready to understand their patterns, reclaim their clarity, and make wiser, more intentional decisions.
Drawing from real‑life insight, spiritual wisdom, and practical reflection, this book uncovers the hidden forces behind the choices we make—and the ones we avoid. You’ll discover why bad decisions happen, how fear and ego distort judgment, and why hesitation can be just as costly as action. More importantly, you’ll learn how to break these cycles and replace them with habits that lead to confidence, courage, and purpose.

The life‑defining decision that still awaits you—and how to choose it with confidence
Whether you’re healing from past choices, navigating a major transition, or simply wanting to make better decisions moving forward, this book offers the clarity, courage, and wisdom you need to rise above regret and step into a life defined by purpose.
Your destiny isn’t determined by the decisions you’ve made— but by the ones you choose next.
Living Above Regret: A Workbook for Wise Decisions is a guided journey designed to help you understand your past, strengthen your present, and shape your future through intentional, thoughtful decision‑making. It invites you to slow down, look inward, and reflect on the choices that have shaped your life—both the ones you celebrate and the ones you wish you could change.
Across thirteen reflective chapters, you’ll explore the deeper forces behind your decisions: your emotions, fears, patterns, influences, and blind spots. Through honest questions, practical exercises, and space for personal reflection, you’ll uncover why certain choices keep repeating, why hesitation often feels safer than action, and how clarity begins with awareness.
This workbook doesn’t stop at understanding your past—it equips you to transform your future. You’ll learn how to pause with purpose, seek wise counsel, confront your ego, embrace humility, and recognize the risk zones that quietly sabotage progress. You’ll discover how rejection can redirect you, how redemptive choices can heal you, and how the decision you’ve been avoiding may be the one that unlocks your next chapter.
Ultimately, Living Above Regret empowers you to become a more intentional, courageous, and self‑aware decision‑maker. It challenges you to rise above old patterns, release the weight of past mistakes, and step boldly into the person you were meant to be. More than a workbook, it’s an invitation to rewrite your story with wisdom, confidence, and hope.

What Readers Are Saying
“I read Living Above Regret thinking it’d be another ‘life advice’ book. Next thing I know, I’m laughing, nodding, and realizing I’ve been doing a few things wrong since 1974. By the last chapter, I said, ‘Well, Harold, better get the workbook too — clearly you’ve got some homework to do.’ Honestly, I haven’t enjoyed self‑reflection this much in years.”

“Living Above Regret lit a fire in me I didn’t even realize had gone dim. It made me believe I can build a life that feels intentional, not accidental. By the last page, I knew I wanted the workbook too — not out of obligation, but because I’m excited to put this new clarity into action.”
