Summary of Daniel H. Pink's The Power of Regret

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On October 24, 1960, a composer named Charles Dumont arrived at the Paris apartment of Edith Piaf with fear in his heart and songs in his briefcase. Piaf was one of the most famous entertainers in France and one of the best-known singers in the world. She had been in a coma due to liver damage three months earlier, but she remained notoriously mercurial and hot-tempered. #2 The tattoo Chase got that day was nearly identical to the one Mirella Battista got in Philadelphia five years earlier and 2, 400 miles away.
Battista grew up in Brazil and moved to Philadelphia in her early twenties to attend college. She made many friends, and she even fell in love with a Philly man. But they broke up five years into the relationship, and she moved back to Brazil. #3 The belief that regret is dangerous and unhealthy is widespread in society. But regret is not dangerous or unhealthy, and it is a part of being human.
It is also valuable. #4 We should not doubt the sincerity of people who say they have no regrets. Instead, we should think of them as actors playing a role, and playing it so often and so deeply that they begin to believe the role is real.
