Greetings!
Those first few sentences are usually the hardest, because there are so many ways you could approach it. One technique that is usually very effective is to start with a personal story, jumping right in to the action. For example: "When I opened that drawer, my divorce decree was the last thing I expected to see. Yet, there it was, staring up at me, boldly declaring the end of something that was supposed to last forever. I realized, in that moment, that I had a choice. I could consider that stark, legal document to be a monument to failure--or an open doorway to new possibilities."
That opening would provide a good launching pad for a discussion of learning from life's lessons and not dwelling on regrets. See if you can think of a similar scene to start with and go from there. I'll be happy to help you with editing once you have a rough draft.
Thanks,

I would recommend you to use examples described in "How to stop worrying and start living" book by Dale Carnegie. A lot of useful information can be found in this book! This author gives you a lot of examples, which can really help you to start!

This may sound weird, but sometimes starting an essay with a powerful quote...really gives the essay a good introduction, and makes the reader want to read on.

I suggest you mke a lit of things you did that you wish you had not done. Then start writing about them. That's what it's all about isn't it?
