Default Have You Ever Made A Decision..

that you regret? This summer I turned down a job in Gettysburg working for a non profit organization because I didn't think I was ready to leave home. Well I am kicking my self in the ass for not taking it. The constant sorry we don't have anything available and watching the news on a daily basis and seeing the economy problem is really starting to get to me, I feel like I will never find a job in my field. Sorry for the pointless thread but I needed to vent.

I can't say I really regret anything, I just learned it the hard way.

There is a bunch of things I would rather redo, but if I did well I wouldn't understand why.

Best of luck though.

Ha!

Don't have many regrets... most of my decisions I would not change.

Given the circumstances and what you knew at the time, you would probably have made the same decision if you had to do it again. Don't allow yourself to live in "what if?" You can't change the past... all you can affect is what you do from here.

Hang tough, bro!

Default Re: Have You Ever Made A Decision..

I can think of so many decisions I've made in my life that I second guess now. I've been such a "good boy" my whole life, sometimes I wish had chosen to do the bad things. What keeps me from regretting them is that I had to make all these decisions to wind up where I am now. (Fat and happy with a great wife and a spare bedroom full of cigars.)

It's my sincerest hope that you will look back upon this in future and see it as a positive. The past is the past, don't look back and focus on a great future. Best of luck.

Don clearly knows that whenever doubts creep in, call on Old Blue Eyes to find clarity.

I tend to not believe people that say they have no regrets in life. They cover it up with pretty phrases that all essentially mean the same thing.

Why regret that????? Looking over your shoulder, and all the what if's.....Not worth your time Bro. You make decisions based on the now and foreseeable future.
