This episode of TED Talks Daily features Elise Hu introducing a conversation between author Daniel H. Pink and TED curator Whitney Pennington Rodgers about regret. Pink discusses his research involving 16,000 stories of regret from over 100 countries, identifying four core regrets: foundation, boldness, moral, and connection regrets. He explains how understanding these regrets can lead to a better life by highlighting what people value most: stability, growth, ethical behavior, and love/connection. The conversation includes a live segment where Pink helps a TED member, Lily, analyze and reframe her regret about being shy, offering strategies to move forward. They also address questions about dealing with painful regrets and defining the difference between regret and disappointment.
