Title: If you could go back in time to any point in your life one time to give yourself
Post by: -gg- on June 04, 2023, 01:46:31 PM
So you have an opportunity. You can go back in time to any point in your life and you've got 10 minutes to give yourself advice for the future.

What would you say? What point in time would you choose?

There's obvious things. Like by this stock or that stock. But I don't mean that. I mean life advice.

I would go back to last Thursday evening and call my dad. I would have but there was something else to do so I forgot. He died Friday morning at 2 AM.

A couple of years ago a friend of mine called me and I missed her call. She left me a message. Gina? Where are you? Give me a call.
She died in her sleep that night before I even got her message. I got her message the next day after I found out she was dead.

I would have picked up that call.

I would tell my younger self not to worry about what people think. Do what's best for you. And do it while you're young.

Some people will be opposed to this answer, but here it is.

In my late teens, God was teaching me to be the man He wanted me to be.  There was one lesson I didn't want to learn, so I didn't (no, I am not going into details).  Most of the mistakes I made in the following years were made because I didn't learn that one lesson.

I would tell my younger self to learn that lesson.

I'd tell myself not to settle and choose the career you truly want despite what adults tell you.

Of course you cannot go back but you can tell your future self something right now. Do it.

Condoleances. My choise would be bit similar. I'd go back to that moment long time ago when I jumped off from my fathers car and told him to tell my greetings to his uncle. He parished on that trip.

The idea of the thread is that you can go back in time for 10 minutes and you will be giving your younger self advice.
