The fact that many people end their lives regretting working too much

A book that was previously published in the British Guardian newspaper and became a hot topic.5 regrets at the moment of death(Original author: The Top Five Regrets of the Dying: A Life Transformed by the Dearly Departing)”, one of the regrets at the end of life that we sometimes see on TV, books, the Internet, and other media is “working too muchMany people have probably seen this mentioned.

In this book, the author, Bronny Ware, who has worked as a visiting nurse for palliative care, introduces a number of anecdotes in the following structure, in which she interacts with terminally ill patients through her work, and hears from patients what they regret or are satisfied with in their lives.

  1. I wish I had lived a life that was true to myself.
  2. I wish I didn’t work too much
  3. I should have taken the plunge and expressed my feelings.
  4. I should have kept in touch with my friend.
  5. I should have sought more happiness

Mr. John emphasized that no matter how fulfilling your work is, it is necessary to have a fulfilling private life.

John, the patient featured in one of the episodes in Chapter 2 of this book, “I Wish I Hadn’t Worked Too Much,” has been devoting himself to a fulfilling job with ample income, and has been postponing the retirement that his wife had hoped for.

At his wife’s repeated requests, he finally decided when to retire, but before that day could come, his wife passed away.Mr. John regrets not being able to live a post-retirement life with his wife.He says this to the author, Bronny.

“It’s perfectly fine to love your job and want to put in the effort. But you should put more effort into your personal life. The important thing is balance. Don’t lose your balance.”

From 5 Regrets at the Moment of Death by Bronny Ware (Author), Megumi Niki (Translator) pages 108-109

Mr. John finds the work itself very rewarding and has been working on it while earning a good income, so from the outside it looks good.
However, for him, it was not as if he had a fulfilling private life.My regrets have grown biggercannot be ignored.

On the other hand, there is an episode in which a patient who appeared in another chapter ended his life happily, proud of the fact that he had done what he was supposed to do in his private life, even though his life was difficult and painful from the perspective of others.

In this book, there are many messages that make you regret not fulfilling your private life, which you tend to ignore and put off.

When a big wall stands in your way, it’s easy to think that you should concentrate solely on your work, but you can’t overlook the huge risks that come with doing so.

Isn’t it always good to have a balance between work and private life?

Of course, it cannot be said that everyone absolutely needs a fulfilling private life.

  • Work content where the distance between work and private life is very close
  • I have put too much effort into my private life, so I need to focus on work for the time being.

I’m sure there are some people in situations where they don’t need to be conscious of balancing work and work for reasons such as these.
However, there is no doubt that whether you are conscious of such things or not, the situation in which you create and digest your daily tasks will change for the better.

I’m in a pinch because I’ve been lazing around for too long, so please try to work as hard as you can!

Partner
I think it’s fine if you can say that your private life is enriched even if you spend time lazing around, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

Sato(tentative)
…Yeah, I don’t feel fulfilled at all, only regrets.

Partner
Then let’s get excited and do our best!
However, don’t forget that rest is also important.
