While that sounds ideal, I don't think there is anything wrong with reflecting on your life and experiences and realizing that yeah, there are some things you could have done differently or better. The opportunities were there, you just didn't take them when you had the chance.
I wouldn't call it all "regrets" necessarily, nor would I classify it as being a "burden" or as "guilt" (I certainly don't go around thinking about these things day after day). We all make mistakes. We learn from them and hopefully don't repeat them. I think sometimes it makes us better and/or stronger people (I know my mistakes did that for me).
I'm thankful for the people in my life that I've encountered along the way who shared their regrets and mistakes, and passed it on as words of wisdom.
