If You Had A Time Machine...

If you had a time machine and could only use it one time, where would you go? Would you go back in time and try to change something or would you go forward in time to see what the future holds in store for you? Of course, we know from the movie “Back To The Future” that changing one small thing in the past can completely alter the future. Still, we may want to change the course of our life. Even though that is impossible to do. Young people should really think about that. What you do NOW can greatly affect your future prospects. Decisions that you make as a young person can start your life in a good direction or bad direction. You have the power NOW to make good decisions, because later, you won’t be able to change the past. It’s definitely something to consider while you are young enough to do something about your future. Older persons don’t have that luxury. There are things that I regret doing when I was younger and there are even more things that I regret NOT doing and there is nothing that I can do about either situation. Sad but true. Not that my life has been ruined in any way, but it could have been better. I could be healthier today, if I had exercised more and eaten a better diet, for instance. I could have been better educated, had I opted for college or nursing school, as I had once planned to do. Life planning is something that every young person should do as early in life as possible. Think about what you want your future to be and then take the necessary steps to accomplish that for yourself. Make good decisions while you are still young and able to map out a plan for your future.
