The Top Five Career Regrets

Daniel Gulati, co-author of ‘Passion &Purpose: Stories from the Best and Brightest Young Business Leaders’ asks a simple question. What do you regret most about your career? What would you do differently if you had the chance to magically rewind your career?
Here were the top five career regrets he identifies on most professional’s mind:

1. I wish I hadn't taken the job for the money. By far the biggest regret of all came from those who opted into high-paying but ultimately dissatisfying careers.
