Agreed, life doesn't have a reset button, no Groundhog Day. We do what we do, and sometimes we fuck up. Recognizing you made a wrong move, to avoid making it again, is smart. But beating yourself up with coulda, shoulda, woulda, doesn't help, and is actually counterproductive.
Also, when we spend a lot of time analyzing past mistakes, it's too easy to dismiss all the right decisions we made. You don't want to lament, "For 20 years, Pierre, he ____. Then he _____ one time, and they call him Pierre the ________. Sacre bleu!
