They say "Hindsight" is a wonderful thing,if you had it what would you change in your life ?

Answer 1

Well,i am satisfied in life... =) hehe... hello there sexy!

Answer 2

My biggest mistake in life was made many years ago at the tender age of 15, when I decided to quit school and take a job, instead of staying to take my GCE's (as the examinations were then known). It set me on a path so different to the one I believe I would have travelled had I been patient and remained a student until I'd satisfied my full learning potential. No use crying over what could have been though and I do have wonderful children and did manage to achieve a degree of satisfaction as a mature student. Had I done the same thing in more recent times, I think I would have been able to start over again, but it was a bit different in the early 60's.

Answer 3

In hindsight I wouldn't have had that last vodka the other night, I woke up with a mouth like the bottom of a budgies bird cage and the hangover from hell, I was poorly sick all of yesterday, didn't even get on answers lol. but other than that I wouldn't change a thing, all the ups and downs of my life have made me the person I am today. Yes I am feeling lots better today.. LOL

Answer 4

I wouldn't change a thing, as if I did I would no longer have hindsight, and probably just end up making the same mistakes.

Answer 5

perhaps you might want to consider rephrasing your question?
you say IF one had hindsight...
hindsight is that which you see when you've had experience in certain things you were once unsure about because u never experienced them as yet.
so, everyone really has hindsight (its an application of the wisdom you gained through a certain set of experiences)
Most people have hindsight, its only the incredibly dull and foolish who dont...?

Answer 6

If I could go back, I wouldn't marry either of the men I did, nor dated anyone else. I'd stay single till I met the man I'm with now because he's a dream come true, in fact if I'd known where to find him, I'd have gone there to get him and we could have had the last 20 years together.

I'd also have studied harder, got my history degree ten years earlier than I did, and then gone on to study either more history and become an historian or else qualified as a psychologist. But as for studying, it's not too late till you've stopped breathing, are you listening, other posters??

Answer 7

I would have put more effort into my time at school.

I wouldn't have got involved with a long term drug addict who I thought I could change, nor would I have stayed with him for 5years of hell.

I would not have been pressured into an abortion with my second pregnancy just because I already had a newborn. I know now I would have coped along with thousands of others.

Just those three things would have altered my life drastically and I'd now be typing a different list!!!

Answer 8

If I had "hindsight," I would change nothing. Every mistake I ever made turned out to be a unique and valuable lesson.

Answer 9

actually they say hindsight is 20/20
not a wonderful thing

Answer 10

Although I have made major mistakes in my life (two to be exact, though shan't bore you with details) I read someplace that if we all threw our 'adverse life experiences' into the middle of the room and then told we had to pick back out any two of our own choice, we'd pick up the ones we threw in in the first instance. Life has its ups'n'downs but we never get anything in life that we can't handle. :-))

Answer 11

I wouldnt of married the first time when i knew it wasnt going to work.

And would of been a better parent to my first child though i know that they are always a bit of a guinea pig!

Having said all that, i think that you do learn and grow from things that you regret or would like to change
