He's talking about the benefit of having experiences, of taking chances and not worrying about possible mistakes. Making mistakes is OK, and will eventually be forgotten, but regrets at not having done or tried something will remain to your deathbed.

That does NOT need "interpreting." It says what it says what it means.

And it's good advice.

fear of failure is not an option. .

My mom used to say that... only she told me...
"Never say COULDA', WOULDA', SHOULDA'!!!"
My dad, who I never knew too well used to say...
"Don't wish your life away." ... whenever we kids would say...
"I can't wait until Christmas!"
good advice huh?

he's trynna say "go out there and play hard" simple as that...then 20 years from now you'll see yourself doing that..then you'll be happy knowing you did what you did

Tke a risk in lifee, do not be afraid to try new things. Fear of failing is not good
