How to Avoid Regret and Live in Alignment (For High Performers)
from The Ensaun Experience · host Faisal Ensaun
Most people avoid the one conversation that could save them from a lifetime of regret. In this training, Faisal Ensaun breaks down why regret happens, why your personality and culture aren't the "real you," and how to close the gap between who you are now and who you're meant to become.Regret doesn't come from a single bad decision — it comes from living out of sync with what actually matters to you at your core. Faisal unpacks why we constantly distract ourselves (phones, busyness, "productivity") to avoid sitting with the thoughts and emotions that point us toward that misalignment — and why even high performers are especially good at using work as the distraction.Key Takeaways:Why regret is rooted in living disconnected from your true self, not just poor choicesHow personality and culture/religion shape an identity that was never fully yours to begin withThe concept of "ideal self vs. current self" — and why the gap between them drives growth or painWhy looking back at painful past experiences (without shame or guilt) is essential to real growthHow to define a future version of yourself instead of assuming you'll always be who you are todayWhy alignment — not achievement — is the real antidote to regretFeatured Insight: "The gap between your ideal self and your current self is what creates growth — or the lack of it." This episode reframes regret not as something to fear, but as a signal pointing you back toward alignment with your true values.About Faisal Ensaun: Faisal Ensaun is a high-performance coach who works with leaders, entrepreneurs, and investors to help them close the gap between where they are and who they're capable of becoming — using real experience, not theory, drawn from his own journey through addiction, personal loss, and growth.This training is for you if: You're a high performer, leader, or entrepreneur who senses you're chasing goals that were handed to you by culture, family, or expectation — and you want to build a future self-vision that's actually yours.Want to go deeper?
