I agree.
A life lesson I have learned is that regret is pointless unless it encourages you to do better in the future.
Another is: How we remember the quality of our experiences is not the same as how they were. Our memories work like stories... we remember how things end... and yet it's not true that all is well that ends well. But, thankfully, it's not true that all that's ill ends ill either. An experience can end well but not be worth it because the experience up until that point was so awful... but, fortunately it's also the case that an experience can end horribly and yet still be worth it because the journey was amazing.
It's impossible to retroactively ruin an intrinsically good past experience after the fact. No matter how bad you remember it and how you feel it was "spoiled" or "ruined".... if it felt good at the time it felt good at the time.
Also, ambition is in the eye of the beholder.
