The word 'regrets' here signifies the mistakes committed by one prior to today and a wise man who learns from those mistakes uses that refined knowledge to help strive for success today. If one succeeds in what one does in such circumstances today, there is no reason why one should not take pride in the mistakes committed yesterday as those very mistakes eventually help in achieving the success of today! So we say, 'to err is human' and we all learn from our mistakes.

Well I guess I don't have to worry about having more knowledge than God intended, because I certainly DON'T take pride in my mistakes. I feel pride when I learn from mistakes and don't make them again, that's it. Other than that, I feel regret for mistakes made.

He means that in order for us to grow and further ourselves in this world, we must learn from our mistakes. Rather than being ashamed of what we've done wrong, by "...take pride..." he means we should accept them as a part of our lives.
to quote a line from the Disney animated film Dumbo "The very things tht held you down are gonna carry ya up..." that's the essence of his statement

taking a stab at it.
if one learns from his mistakes he isn't destined to repeat them. i think taking pride in ones mistakes equates to lessons learned.
