People are often deluded into things which they think are crucial at the moment. But, when they look back at what has happened or what has been done, they wish they had done things differently, or criticize themselves as to why they didn’t notice the right things at the proper time. Psychologists refer to this as the hindsight bias.
Now, they who disbelieve say, “There is nothing but our life in this world, and never shall we be raised from the dead.” Yet if only you could see now when they shall be brought back to life and set before their Lord for Judgment. He shall say to them, “Is this Resurrection to life not the very truth that you denied?” They shall say, “Yes, indeed, by our Lord it is!” He shall say, “Then taste the everlasting torment in that before this Day you have disbelieved!” Truly those in this life who have belied resurrection and the destined Meeting with Allah for Judgment in the Hereafter are the ones at loss. When suddenly the Hour shall have come to them, they shall say, “Alas for us for all that we have neglected regarding this Day!”, and they shall carry their load of sin upon their backs. Most surely, evil is the load they bear.
For the life of this world is nothing but play and amusement. And, most surely, the abode of the Hereafter is far batter for those who are conscious of Allah. Will you not then understand? – Quran 6:29-32
