When you’re happy you find pure joy in your life. There are no regrets in this state of happiness - and that’s a goal worth striving for in all areas of your life.

The quotation frames happiness as a present-tense condition marked by “pure joy” and, crucially, by the absence of regret. It implies that regret is not merely an emotion about the past but a signal of misalignment between one’s choices and one’s values; in genuine happiness, that friction falls away. The final clause turns the idea into a practical ethic: treat regret-free living as an aspirational standard to apply across domains (work, relationships, money, health). In a voice consistent with Orman’s self-help approach, the line suggests that well-being is something to be cultivated through intentional decisions rather than passively awaited.
