what would you have done different?

**gixxerboy1** · 05-20-2002, 09:34 PM

If you look back on your life. What would you do different? Jobs, family decisions? What I would change is would have done better in school and went on to further my education.

would have gotten better grades in high school so i would not have to worry about paying for college

i was just reflecting on this the other day. if i could have done things differently, i would have not worried as much about relationships, friends, and other distractions. i would have been where i'm at now in life about 3 years earlier.time waits for no man or woman. i'm happy and have been very sucessful in my short life but i would have liked to enjoy the success i've had in the past fews years even earlier. although, i'm not sure if i would have been mature enough to handle it. so i guess god only gives you as much as you can handle at the time. ok, speech is over!!!!resume postings

I would have listened more & paid attention. I think that is the shortcut key to happiness.

If I would have listened and paid attention (to the ones I knew were right) I could have avoided alot of heartache and pain that I can only blame myself for now.

Well I not gonna go deep with this on.

If I could go back I wouldn't have sold my Integra...Damn what I could have done to that car by now.

Listen more to pops about saving the cash flow.
I do OK now, but if I would of made the moves he told me to do, I couldn't even fathom the security I'd have at this point

**bigkev** · 05-21-2002, 03:32 PM

jesus, i would just be reborn as someone else!!!!!

**broncojosh** · 05-21-2002, 03:38 PM

hmm...great thread. I have thought about this over beers alot lately, well before my cycle, because of breaking off a long relationship. Not sure if I would do anything really differently. I know it sounds crazy, but hell, I've made it this far, and I honestly like where I am at. The situations and experiences we have make up who we are. With that said there is one thing, and I only hope I can be forgiven

**Buddha_Red** · 05-21-2002, 05:59 PM

I would get off my fat ass WAY sooner then now and already be out of my fat suit hehe

Besides that, hell i have had fun even when things were terrible.

so i guess i would do the stupid things over again.. heh or not

**freakout** · 05-21-2002, 07:42 PM

I would have started weight training earlier and not at 25 years old. I am now looking at guys at 20 to 21 looking bigger and better especially those studying and in the military. They have all the time to do that.

Somehow I do not have the time and ability to do so now...

I think this says it best.
Best and worst thing about experience.
best - Experience is the best teacher.
worst - Normally you've got to fuck up to get it.

wcg, I agree with you, but sometimes we do things that we know are bullshit, and still do them. Then the minute it's done, you know it will be with you forever

The final words of most of the men in my family tree prove this to be true. "Hey ya'll watch this".

Seriously I don't believe I would be anywhere near the person I am (at such a early age) if it wasn't for the decisions I've made in the past.

I enjoy being described as "aged beyond my years"

**Lady Viking** · 05-22-2002, 04:29 AM

Hmm, I think that I would do almost everything different way since I turned 16.

**str82hellnback** · 05-22-2002, 09:51 AM

I think my life has been awesome, however i guess i could have gone without killin that guy in january, blowing up my own car this may, setting the house affire in december, and punching my boss's wife last night. but man,i had to give her something in return for the great head

**BOUNCER** · 05-22-2002, 11:43 AM

Most likely I'd make the same mistakes all over again, I don't allow myself the luxury of regret.

We find "roid rage" to be a psychologically unfit term, we prefer to use "Anabolic misconduct"

Since I am only 19 and the majority of my life has consisted of school my regret is going to involve school (Big surprise). I would have focused alot more in highschool to get the best grades possible and push myself by taking more advanced classes. As always though, hindsight is 20/20 and I am glad I broke away from a crowd of friends that would have drug me down instead of lifting me up. I think I found the right path quite early on in life, considering many people I use to know do not even go to school. And the odd thing is whenever I see them the first thing I always say to them is "$5 on pump 2" laugh

peace

**Butch** · 05-22-2002, 03:03 PM

I don't think I would have changed anything. Because all that I did in my life has made me the person that I am today. And I am happy with who I am.

But if I had to I would of taken a cab instead of driving after all those shots and beers.

**Cali** · 05-22-2002, 03:24 PM

I don't have many regrets even though I've done my share of screw ups(and I'm pretty sure I've covered a few other people) just because I have learned a lot about life by experiencing it. BUT if I had to do it over I would have spent a lot more quality time with my mom before she passed away. It's too easy to take time for granted.
