If I could go back in time and change a single thing in life, I guess I would like to take this opportunity to invest my money in a more profitable endeavor. For a little background, I received 88,000 pesos or approximately 1,700 dollars when the company I worked with for more than 5 years underwent rationalization program. I invested it in several small time businesses. Unfortunately, the money didn't last long. Modesty aside, I was quite industrious in earning funds through my daytime job, aside from having parttime businesses. I was almost rendering overtime work everyday and this is easy for me since I was still single or unattached then. Further, I used to spend weekends in seminars or earning opportunities. I wasn't living from paycheck to paycheck then, so to say. And I regret losing all my savings due to rush decisions I've made in the past. I'm thinking that if I had been more careful then, I guess our life with my own family would be much easier now. Anyway, past is past. I guess it's better to move on forward and try to make our lives happier and fulfilled. Regards.

If I could go back and change one thing in my life, it would be my attitude in my high school days. I was so shy then, I didn't mingle with other people. I was insecure and I have no self-confidence. As a result, I wasn't able to enjoy my high school days. If my atitude back then was the other way around, I would have had memories of high school days worth remembering right now.

If I ever get a chance to change one thing in my life, I thing it will be age as I dont have any other thing to change.I would try changing my own age as I dont want to grow up too early.Life is full of happiness we just need to live it.I want to leave for as many years as possible.

Although I have had many hardships to live through, I would not change anything about my life. The things I have gone through have made me who and what I am today and led me to where I am today. If anything was different, it is hard to tell what my life would be like now.

My senior year in college I was nominated to be a Leadership Consultant for my sorority. A Leadership Consultant (LC) spends three months in training and then nine months traveling around the country visiting the different chapters of the sorority, helping them with whatever they need help with. Usually there are three or four of them each year and they are chosen through an application process. Getting offered the position without applying for it means someone who worked at Headquarters nominated you...which is what happened to me. At that point in time, I was engaged and planning to move in with my fiance after graduation. Partly because of him (about 60% because of him), I turned down the LC position. We broke up shortly after that and now I wish I had gone ahead and taken the position. We'd already gone through 8 months of long distance, we could have surely handled another year. Or we might have still broken up but I would have had the experience and seen the country....

I wod have skipped marrying my second wife. I was going through my midlife crisis and what should have been a short-lived affair turned into a disastrous marriage when I got her pregnant. Looking back there were other options that we should have taken advanatage of to not make those 2 years miserable for either of us. Trying to get divorced from her was a nightmare as well. She tried very hard to make life difficult for me and my then-girlfriend now wife.
