Yeah… The mistakes are learning experiences. They help us grow. If your mistakes are “I dated a girl who cheated on me” and “I leased an expensive car when I shouldn’t have”… Those things probably helped shape you into a more rational, mature person, assuming you learned from them.

Now if your mistake is “I worked 80 hour weeks for 30 years for my shitty career and never saw my family and now I’m dying early from stress induced heart attacks” or “I had some shady dealings in the past and now the mafia is after my family”, I’d take the mistake-fixing door. But hopefully most people’s mistakes aren’t quite that bad.
