No one knows what they’ll think towards the end of their life, but one doctor has an idea of what you may regret.
Shoshana Ungerleider, a doctor of internal medicine, has worked with terminally ill patients and witnessed people sharing what they are most remorseful about as they inch towards their end of their lives.
Dr Ungerleider, 44, shared the top five things people have regretted on their death bed – advising people to use it as a reminder to live in the present.
‘Being proximate to the end of your life really allows you — pushes you — to be present because that’s all you have,’ says Dr Ungerleider, who is based in San Francisco, told CNBC Make It.
The doctor, who is also set to host of the upcoming Before We Go podcast, launching October 8, says this is applicable to all of us.
‘Throughout our lives, this present moment is all we have,’ she pointed out.
Dr Ungerleider listed the biggest regrets as:
Not spending enough time with the people they love
Working too much
Letting fear control their decisions and not taking enough risks
Not being brave in the face of uncertainty or opportunity
