Answer 1

You look yourself in the mirror, figure out what it is exactly that is not working out, set some goals and go forward. You may have to lose some of your "friends"

Don't be afraid to admit you goofed up, remember it's not how you start, it's how you finish, and unless you're dying inthe next few minutes, ther is still time.

Answer 2

Throw my arms up in the air and surrender to way it has worked out. Chances are, even though it hasn't worked out "MY" way, the way it did work is probably worth being thankful for.

I haven't won the pulitzer or an oscar or a tony, and I'm not wealthy, but I've got a roof over my head, food enough, and I've written some good works that I'm proud of. I teach. I travel. I'll even be lecturing at an Independent Film Festival at Mann's Chinese Theater in Hollywood next Tuesday.

Answer 3

That's what happened to me. I had a son and as parents, you wish only the best for your child. You see baseball, football, lotsa friends, good grades, etc. My son has special needs so things didn't work out the way I planned. He consumes my life and my time. That's what I was given and though there were days when I would like to just bury my head in the sand, my job is make sure he will be the best he can be. He has lots of potential and that's where I keep my direction pointed. I think of all the things in my life that we were fortunate enough to obtain. We aren't in poverty, have health insurance, have food on our table, nice cars, good friends and the money to pay for any needs my son may have when he gets out on his own, i.e., trust fund. So it didn't work out quite the way I wanted it to, but some people can't have children and I was lucky enough to get my son.

Answer 4

I've been thinking about my life too lately......and i realized that yeah it hasn't gone my way it's probably because I was very stubborn. If things don't go my way...I felt like overwhelmed, betrayed, discouraged....etc......But most of the times, when things go wrong, it just means that you should take another path, go around and you will get there....just like when there is traffic and you are looking for another way to get home......We human we try to complicate things, but when we think about it...everything can turn out right.....Good luck

Answer 5

Go an other way:) Life is full of beauty and wonder. Look closer or farther away. Sneak up on yourself and go boo! Change your goals into something you can get satisfaction and pleasure out of.

Answer 6

Well, every person does realize this sooner or later.

We all eventually have to accept that you are going to have to live your life as it is because it may be to late or too hard to fix it.

Be grateful for what you have that does please you and let go of the rest.

Answer 7

You persevere onward, making the best of what there is! Life is really too short to quibble about and happiness if easy to find when you take the time to look.

Answer 8
