The only reason I can envision "living a life full of regret" is failing to take advantage of the opportunities that come along to you in real life--opportunities to make friends, oportunities to serve and be with your family, opportunities to get an education or find a job that has some meaning, and, yes, opportunities to use your imagination in any legitimate way you can to express yourself and your dreams.
Imagination will not leave you with a life of regret, unless you totally neglect friends, family, education, etc. I don't think anyone is advising that. But I firmly believe that, in the age we live in, more has been lost by neglecting the imagination than by failing to spend too much time on the practical necessities of life.
