“I'd rather regret doing something than not doing something”

Simplified Meaning:

It's better to try something, even if it might not work out, than to always wonder what could have happened. Imagine you have an opportunity to move to a new city for a job. If you go and it doesn't work out, at least you'll know and have the experience of trying. But if you don't go, you might spend your whole life thinking about what you missed. Taking action, even if it leads to mistakes, helps you learn and grow. This way, you won't be filled with 'what ifs' in the future. It's about making the most of your chances and living with fewer regrets.
