“Guilt can turn into a wasted emotion quite quickly. It does not serve any purpose, if not followed by a rectifying action. If you feel guilty about your actions, simply take steps to correct the behavior, apologize if you need to, and do not repeat the offense. Guilt and remorse have two useful functions: 1. We acknowledge the damage we caused to others. 2. We recognized the negative behaviors we need to stop repeating.” — J.S. Wolfe
Guilt can turn into a wasted emotion quite quickly. It does not serve any purpose, if not followed by a rectifying action.
If you feel guilty about your actions, simply take steps to correct the behavior, apologize if you need to, and do not repeat the offense.
Guilt and remorse have two useful functions:
1. We acknowledge the damage we caused to others.
2. We recognized the negative behaviors we need to stop repeating.
