The question is: what is your greatest regret?As is shown in the chart, 72% of the people surveyed regret they did not work hard enough when they were still young, so now they still live a common life. 67% express that they did not choose an appropriate career. Though devoted to their work, they
32、 are not satisfied. Another 58% regret not having taken enough physical exercise, which caused damage to their health. 11% failed to earn enough money and thus they cannot afford expensive things.In my opinion, not working hard at the young age is the greatest regret.
