Hmm... I think I would go back and redo high school / college and take it seriously this time.

Nothing because I learn everything in my life

I regret not one single thing.  I am who I am because of the experiences I have had. 

I think when we focus on changing something in the past -- something that cannot be changed -- it detracts from who we really are.  We cannot change the past.  We can only change who we are now.

I would embrace public speaking.  There are so many open doors for people who are not afraid to get up in front of a group or audience and share their knowledge or motivate others.  I was very shy, avoiding speaking in front of people if I could possibly get out of it.  As an adult I have observed that the sky is the limit for those who can be comfortable at the podium.

bhiett, I was very shy growing up, and to this day I still fear speaking in front of large groups.

Are you shy or are you an introvert?  There is nothing wrong with being an introvert.  :D

I would study hard in school so I could have a better career.

Umm...  I wish I knew what I needed to do to get a job in my field earlier.  I finally have the degree but don't have a portfolio to show off my skill so now I'm working on that part and find it frustrating how I'll come across a job that sounds great to me and I constantly keep seeing the like "please send us your resume and portfolio" which pretty much makes me stop reading.  I'll be so happy when I can one day get past that line and start comparing the rest of my skills.

Other than that, I'd love to go back and tell myself to do things more when I was younger.  I have a good 15+ games that I haven't finished in my collection that I feel like I'll never get around to.

The only thing I would change right now is where I am living.  Fortunately that is do-able, and I expect to make that change before the year is out.

If I could change one thing about my life, I would have kept my job.  Times are hard, and you need every penny you can get nowadays. :star: :star: :star:
