To date 32% of tellwut voters have a tatto and of those 26% regret getting it. That's over a quarter of people getting tattoos regret it. Not sure if you gave that stat to kids,it would change their mind.
i would like to add the spanish subtitles to the video "Kathryn Schulz: Don't regret regret". Is there any way i could get official authoritation to do so and the guarantee it will be added to the video?
About 45 people answered. Geez. A few of you even passive aggressively went to my channel to dislike every video. Thanks. It's bad wording on her part. And by the way, I'm clearly not the only person that got confused since I got 10 likes.
"regrets reminds us we can do better":it turned up as a club of people with post shock from having made a tattoo. having regrets doesn't mean we won't heart people we love, it may lead to the same/similar action. in general trying to give the best according to the circumstances, which means we should do conscious efforts to learn to make decisions. we all DO make mistakes. excepting it's good. i think this has to do with totally another sort of speech-ego, motivation, software design, etc.
Homosexual activists understand the power of words.
Please visit my channel to watch a one-minute video clip in which popular atheist author Richard Dawkins admits that homosexual activists "hijacked the word 'gay'".
The word "homosexual" is more appropriate and accurate because it, unlike the word "gay", actually describes the behavior/attraction/relationship being discussed.
The word "gay" helps homosexual activists push their agenda.
The past can teach us, through experience, how to accomplish things in the future, comfort us with cherished memories, and provide the foundation of what has already been accomplished. But only the future holds life. To live in the past is to embrace what is dead. To live life to its fullest, each day must be created anew. As rational, thinking beings, we must use our intellect, not a blind devotion to what has come before, to make rational choices.
Kathryn Schulz, you are so caring and compassionate and gentle. You speak like an all-forgiving mother who will protect and soothe her children. This video made me cry because you hit the nail on the head. Everyday I'm reminded by my mind of the stupid things I've done. Everyday I'm trying to let them go. Thank you for talking about regret and for comforting people who can't stop hating certain things about themselves that they can't undo.
Regret, unfortunately to the ego, is a choice. Why did she regret that tattoo? There must have been something there worth getting it for her or she wouldn't have had the impulse. Regret is exacerbated by not choosing the more powerful, life affirming choice of being proud of one's decisions, whatever they are. Everything is beautiful, everything is great. And yes, I really mean everything, as long as its done for the possibility of love. And even if you mess up, regret quickly becomes unecessary

@BBQPeanut not 17% of 11.5m, but 17% of all americans who have tattoos. the 11.5m figure refers to the number of hits after googling "regret tattoo". #justsaying
@BBQPeanut there are 11.5 million google results for regretted tattoos. 24% of Americans between age 18 and 50 have tattoos. 17% of those people regret getting theirs. I don't know what the exact numbers are there, but the point is that she never claims that 17% of 11.5 million is 7 million. You just misinterpreted her.
@BBQPeanut Listening comprehension. 11.5m was a figure for hits for a Google search. 7m was the number of people who regret tattoos. The latter number was not calculated from the former. 7m represented 17% of the total number of people who have tattoos.
@BBQPeanut 11.5 m is the number of Google hits for the words "tattoo" and "regret". 7m could very well be 17% of all the people in the U.S with tattoos. they don't have to be the same figure. do you see why ?
"I dont have any regrets. My mistakes made me who I am today". I was in highschool when I had this opinion. Its time to grow and evolve and accept that sometimes, you should have known better. Do you take something positive out of your mistakes? I hope so. Does that mean you shouldnt regret them? Common now, time to grow up, son. I do wish she was a better writer and public speaker though. Her delivery is awful.
If they ever invent TEDDYTalks, this could be a flagship video. In fact, this lady was created to teach children, and her self-proclaimed "perfectionism" is further proof of such: children would be a well-spring of personal growth opportunity for her.
@cristoretornebiblia I don't know. Probably there are at least 850 people who like to talk about nothing in particular. And there's nothing wrong with that, just not on TED
Mistakes in the past is what makes you stronger and wiser. People have regrets because they don't see the value of mistake. fuck regret, and what what's wrong with being a sociopath. Not be able to feel right and wrong, doesn't automatically means they just gonna go ahead and commit crimes. There are laws and social consequences.
I disagree with her premise. There is no need for regret when you have a larger picture of existence. There is no future or past, both are ideas as the present is all that exists. Regrets are for people who don't like the way their life turned out but if you understand the Present then it's impossible to have regrets.

Perhaps my level of regret has more to do with becoming a better person than from the grief of making a life changing mistake.
I don't believe she was saying have no regrets I believe she is saying embrace your regrets, make peace with them, then let go of them. Get back to living and embracing this moment.
I regretted mine the same day as well! But, I ran to the privacy of my own home and cried into a pillow. Then I got it (mostly) surgically removed. I say "mostly" because I ran out of money at that time, and now it's a faded, barely visible reminder that I shouldn't get any more tats.
"Fools regret until they die, forgive yourself back to life." -Channel Detritus by The Human Abstract. Why feel bad emotions if yo don't have to? I agree that you should learn from your mistakes but dwelling on them is foolish.

Is it just me or does anyone else keep looking at the screen cap for "Kathryn Schulz - False Debate" in the side bar and keep thinking "That's one ugly stoned hippy!"? :D
I don't think that embracing your regrets was ever the meaning of "no regrets". It was saying you could skip the emotional regret part and simply jump to the 'move on' part.
Kathryn Schulz is saying: (a) that's impossible, (b) everyone feels regret, and (c) don't regret your regret, just get through it and move on.
@bamboopoem1989 i struggle in my life alot, and when i laugh it only helps temporarily, when i stop laughing i must deal with my fears, and the harm i unintentionally cause to others and the resulting pain it causes myself
Regret is an automatic emotional response to something that has happened or been done, while wishing otherwise. For as long as you live, you will regret something. That's how emotions works. No need to be melodramatic.
I have attended university for several years and learned alot yet never scquired a degree, I have not regred the education I have participated in. All the knowledge and reflection I have done throughout the years have been beneficial to me. If not for practcial purposes, at least for getting to understand my own values and goals better.
For me learning has never stopped. I still find it enourmously enjoyable to study and think about new concepts and seek out new knowledge.
I'm not sure we even have control over how we feel. Kathryn has learned how to deal with things as she has aged. I doubt she could've dealt with her regret over her tattoo any differently had she been privvy to her present knowledge at an earlier time. Had she watched an identical video to this earlier in her life, it just wouldn't have had the same effect. It's something that we may only be able to learn through experiencing the passing of time. I wouldn't have understood this earlier in life.
She obviously completely misunderstands the whole idea of the phase "have no regrets" it's impossible to avoid regret or simply brush it aside, it's part of the human learning process. Having no regrets just means not dwelling endlessly on the unchangeable and to take risks instead of being afraid of the possible consequences. Which is exactly the point she tries to make. She needs to learn what a phase means, before she tries to argue against it.
@soulsanctuarymusic1 I just spent that whole video essentially thinking the same thing, until the very end when I started thinking 'She's regretting that tattoo? Why, it looks good."
@soulsanctuarymusic1 And you need to learn that the word is "phrase", and not "phase". I would have assumed it was just a typo, but you did it twice... gg.
@soulsanctuarymusic1 "Having no regrets just means not dwelling endlessly on the unchangeable" - That is exactly what she means by it.
Of course both sides of the story are there in some part. That's just the way all arguments should be made. If you don't understand both sides, you can't understand the argument.
@somegeezer1992 She seems to take the phrase "having no regrets" very literally, and as such, puts it across as bad concept, a flawed ideal. She instead claims that regret should be embraced. But embracing your regrets is the exactly the idea the phrase was originally intended to convey. i.e. this whole speech is invalid and pointless.
@bamboopoem1989 Erm... NO! Like many words that describe emotions, regret is a word with very little room for personal interpretation. "Regret: To feel sorrow or remorse for (an act, fault, disappointment, etc.)" If you're feeling something different, you're not feeling regret, It's a pretty fixed emotion, like happy or sad.
@DuggabbooDC That description is taken directly from the dictionary, as I said if you're feeling something different, you're not feeling regret. If you're now trying to argue against the fundamental building blocks that make up the consensus of language, then you sir are a moron!
@soulsanctuarymusic1 At least now everyone's in agreement then, huh? Relax about the technicalities. The message is a good whether she understood the phrase or not.
@tmandrumma4 You're an idiot. I mean, I like you. Sorry if you misunderstood me because I used one of those phrases wrong; communicating lucidly is overrated anyway.
You only said what this phrase means to YOU. You're more ignorant than her, since she had to run this past others before being able to present. I've known people who ruin lives then pat themselves on the back with the mantra 'no regret'. A life without regret is a selfish and myopic life.
@PSK11489 Just because there are other people too stupid to understand something doesn't make an argument valid, it simply means there are more stupid people than YOU. Millions of people believe that the day you were born (your star sign) dictates your personality, does this give it any grounds in truth? NO, it simply means there are plenty of stupid people.
@soulsanctuarymusic1 You need to understand her point before you try to argue against it. Having no regrets means having no regrets - which she is argueing against. "not dwelling endlessly on the unchangeable and to take risks" is not what I think of when I think of not having any regrets. I think that it means not having any regrets, which is, again, the point she is trying to make. Please don't expect everyone to share your same interpretation of not having regrets.
@theguythatcouldfly Just because you don't understand the language the rest of us use, doesn't stop you from being retarded. Do you think the phrase "take it easy" actually relates to the idea of taking something with ease? Of course it doesn't, it wouldn't really make any sense. If you think "have no regrets" literally means having no regrets then you are nothing short of moronic and lack understanding of the fundamental building blocks of our language!
@soulsanctuarymusic1 I like how you resort to name calling the first time someone tries to explain the video to you. Clearly, you either didn't understand the concept, or you just didn't watch the entire video. Questioning my intelligence won't help you to understand this video. Arguing semantics won't make you feel better about yourself, either. Watch the video again. Pleace.
@theguythatcouldfly My questioning your intelligence is valid when you have no idea what your talking about. I watched the video twice and I still believe what i said, she is confused. And if I was the only one why would my original comment received so many thumbs up?
@theguythatcouldfly you "guestion my intelligence" do you? No point deleting your stupid comments, I get emails. What's with you repeatedly bashing this retarded notion of me not watching the video. I'm arguing semantics? You're the one getting butt hurt about being called retarded, not doing too well at refuting it BTW. I'm saying her whole speech is based on a false premise....
@theguythatcouldfly ...and just because some people like yourself aren't smart enough to figure out "no regrets" is a form of idiom and semi figurative in nature, doesn't make her anymore intelligent, or this talk any less pointless and boring. She's so soulless in her delivery I don't think even she believes what she's saying. This is definitively rated in the top 10 worst I've seen. Don't take phases too literally or you'll end up like this depression bitch. I wish you well, Break A Leg! ;)

I have attended university for several years and learned alot yet never scquired a degree, I have not regred the education I have participated in. All the knowledge and reflection I have done throughout the years have been beneficial to me. If not for practcial purposes, at least for getting to understand my own values and goals better.
For me learning has never stopped. I still find it enourmously enjoyable to study and think about new concepts and seek out new knowledge.

I'm not sure we even have control over how we feel. Kathryn has learned how to deal with things as she has aged. I doubt she could've dealt with her regret over her tattoo any differently had she been privvy to her present knowledge at an earlier time. Had she watched an identical video to this earlier in her life, it just wouldn't have had the same effect. It's something that we may only be able to learn through experiencing the passing of time. I wouldn't have understood this earlier in life.

She obviously completely misunderstands the whole idea of the phase "have no regrets" it's impossible to avoid regret or simply brush it aside, it's part of the human learning process. Having no regrets just means not dwelling endlessly on the unchangeable and to take risks instead of being afraid of the possible consequences. Which is exactly the point she tries to make. She needs to learn what a phase means, before she tries to argue against it.

@soulsanctuarymusic1 I just spent that whole video essentially thinking the same thing, until the very end when I started thinking 'She's regretting that tattoo? Why, it looks good."

@soulsanctuarymusic1 And you need to learn that the word is "phrase", and not "phase". I would have assumed it was just a typo, but you did it twice... gg.

@soulsanctuarymusic1 "Having no regrets just means not dwelling endlessly on the unchangeable" - That is exactly what she means by it.
Of course both sides of the story are there in some part. That's just the way all arguments should be made. If you don't understand both sides, you can't understand the argument.
somegeezer1992 3 months ago
@somegeezer1992 She seems to take the phrase "having no regrets" very literally, and as such, puts it across as bad concept, a flawed ideal. She instead claims that regret should be embraced. But embracing your regrets is the exactly the idea the phrase was originally intended to convey. i.e. this whole speech is invalid and pointless.

@soulsanctuarymusic1 depends on how you define regrets. right?
bamboopoem1989 3 months ago
@bamboopoem1989 Erm... NO! Like many words that describe emotions, regret is a word with very little room for personal interpretation. "Regret: To feel sorrow or remorse for (an act, fault, disappointment, etc.)" If you're feeling something different, you're not feeling regret, It's a pretty fixed emotion, like happy or sad.

soulsanctuarymusic1 3 months ago
@DuggabbooDC That description is taken directly from the dictionary, as I said if you're feeling something different, you're not feeling regret. If you're now trying to argue against the fundamental building blocks that make up the consensus of language, then you sir are a moron!

You only said what this phrase means to YOU. You're more ignorant than her, since she had to run this past others before being able to present. I've known people who ruin lives then pat themselves on the back with the mantra 'no regret'. A life without regret is a selfish and myopic life.

@PSK11489 Just because there are other people too stupid to understand something doesn't make an argument valid, it simply means there are more stupid people than YOU. Millions of people believe that the day you were born (your star sign) dictates your personality, does this give it any grounds in truth? NO, it simply means there are plenty of stupid people.

@soulsanctuarymusic1 You need to understand her point before you try to argue against it. Having no regrets means having no regrets - which she is argueing against. "not dwelling endlessly on the unchangeable and to take risks" is not what I think of when I think of not having any regrets. I think that it means not having any regrets, which is, again, the point she is trying to make. Please don't expect everyone to share your same interpretation of not having regrets.
theguythatcouldfly 3 months ago
@theguythatcouldfly Just because you don't understand the language the rest of us use, doesn't stop you from being retarded. Do you think the phrase "take it easy" actually relates to the idea of taking something with ease? Of course it doesn't, it wouldn't really make any sense. If you think "have no regrets" literally means having no regrets then you are nothing short of moronic and lack understanding of the fundamental building blocks of our language!
soulsanctuarymusic1 3 months ago
@soulsanctuarymusic1 I like how you resort to name calling the first time someone tries to explain the video to you. Clearly, you either didn't understand the concept, or you just didn't watch the entire video. Questioning my intelligence won't help you to understand this video. Arguing semantics won't make you feel better about yourself, either. Watch the video again. Pleace.
theguythatcouldfly 3 months ago
@theguythatcouldfly My questioning your intelligence is valid when you have no idea what your talking about. I watched the video twice and I still believe what i said, she is confused. And if I was the only one why would my original comment received so many thumbs up?
soulsanctuarymusic1 3 months ago
@theguythatcouldfly you "guestion my intelligence" do you? No point deleting your stupid comments, I get emails. What's with you repeatedly bashing this retarded notion of me not watching the video. I'm arguing semantics? You're the one getting butt hurt about being called retarded, not doing too well at refuting it BTW. I'm saying her whole speech is based on a false premise....
soulsanctuarymusic1 2 months ago
@theguythatcouldfly ...and just because some people like yourself aren't smart enough to figure out "no regrets" is a form of idiom and semi figurative in nature, doesn't make her anymore intelligent, or this talk any less pointless and boring. She's so soulless in her delivery I don't think even she believes what she's saying. This is definitively rated in the top 10 worst I've seen. Don't take phases too literally or you'll end up like this depression bitch. I wish you well, Break A Leg! ;)
