Do Over Day is Feb 26th which just happens to be today!
Do Over Day is perfect day for quality self reflection. A genuine opportunity to better experience and retrain your brain to more effectively contain an emotional response to something that was provocative or otherwise profound.
The polls on the site detail approximately what percentage of our society has regrets and in some cases it even extrapolates on what those regrets are…
Also making the top ten do over list in the “righting the wrongs” category were:
Botching a job interview – 23%
Sending a threatening, mocking or stalking email – 19%
Owning a lame vehicle, such as a minivan – 8%
Within the “reliving the right” category were these revelations:
Falling in love for the first time again – 39%
Becoming skilled at an activity they never thought they could master – 33%
Enjoying an unforgettable meal – 27%
The results are in from multiple focus groups and now we know how many people regret not taking time to speak to an attractive stranger. This was a popular regret btw so many folks listed this type of missed opportunity as the number one event they wish they could do over? I dont know either – you will have to visit the site to find out. I do know that the stat prompted me to consider building a website for missed opportunities.
Click anywhere on the picture above and you’ll find yourself on the Do Over Day website, which is chock full of tips and videos (submitted by other Canadians, same as you and you can make a video too) and send ecards to family and friends, just like the ones seen above.
