Someone is using Jordan’s Substack to reach out. I got an email with an invitation to what’sapp to this number: +1-334-827-8372. I already reported it and blocked it.
Great post. This one is really hitting home today while I'm contemplating shifting (or perhaps not shifting) careers. Thanks again for meeting me for lunch a few weeks ago!
I love this, Jordan. It's extremely valuable for us to learn about regret from folks that are nearing their end. They have a much clearer view of life than we ever could.
I write and speak about meaning, purpose, and connection. I use a thought exercise that pairs observations like yours about end-of-life regrets with Bezos's 'Regret Minimization Framework.' It goes like this: imagine yourself in your final years... look back on your entire life... what will your future self regret? It's a clarifying exercise, for many people.
Thanks for today’s email. It really helped me with my thoughts about a work meeting I will have today. And with life in general. I really enjoyed your book. And I read your emails every time it hits my mailbox.
For me there's a deep connection, including regret, between courage and time.
The longer I wait to have the courage to pursue something, the less time I have to spend doing it.
Even now in retirement, with more time available, I still catch myself thinking about things I should have started years ago, which can stop me in my tracks. The challenge is not letting that thought turn into “it’s too late,” but instead choosing to start the clock today so I can discover what I’ve been missed.
Great “little c” courage post!

Just to be aware.
Powerful post, Jordan. Well written, and personal. Courage. Thanks for challenging us all!
