I recently went through this and well...am constantly going through this! I think everyone does.
I reevalutae everything. I reevaluate what's happening in my life, what I would like to happen in my life, and then how I should change it. There's always something that will deter you and make you go on a different path, BUT no matter where you are and how far in you are on that path you can ALWAYS get back to your original path even if it means running through a scary forest to reach it! =)
Oh, and good advice is to strike while the iron is hot. BETTER advice is to make the iron hot by striking!!!! So I will tell you that it is never too late if you jump on correcting things now!

Have faith that the reason things have worked out the way that have is because it was suppose to be like this. Things aren't always the way we planned them to be, but you have to accept the way things are, and be happy and content with what you do have instead of what you don't. Be thankful that you can walk, talk, think. Be thankful that you have a house, food, a career, even a computer. There are many people who are way worse off than you are.
Take some time for yourself. Figure out what direction you want your life to go and strive to make it happen that way. Pray for God to guide and direct you.

Try again, :(
My life hasn't turned out the way I had been fighting for.
What else have I or we got to live for?
The only thing we have to accept is lost love and lost health.
Your comment: there's a right moment for everything & sometimes it just is... (You are right)
So be ready for the next moment.............

I've come to this point several times in my life. I've made the best of the situation and have done my best to flip it to my advantage. That sometimes means that you have to cut back your pride in order to get through, but it all works out in the end. Just assess your life...take notes. Then make a list of how you want things to be. Compare your notes, then make another list of what you can do to make things better. It doesn't happen overnight, so make short and long-term goals for what you want. Make sure to cross out your accomplishments. And yes, this works for physical, emotional, spiritual, educational, relationships, employment, ect. It all relates to the other in some form. Best of luck to you!

I know your feeling of your life not working out "your way". But the only person to change that is you. Focus on what you want changed and go for it. Do whatever you need to do to get what you want, and be where you want to be.

When life deals you lemons, you make lemonade. What that means is not to wallar in self pity and make the best of a bad situation.

i think, to some degree, this happens to everyone. when it does occur, we have two options: 1. dwell on the life lived to date or
2. adopt the notion that i can change my life so that the remainder of it goes in a positive direction.
having a positive outlook is imperative to finding happiness in life.
we're not all millionaires, perfectly built and developed, successful at dating and/or marriage. those are apart of the facts of life. but what we need to do is to take inventory of what is good in our life, improve on it, and go on from there.
i sense a feeling of despair in your posting. are you entertaining thoughts of suicide? my psychiatrist once told me, and i'll pass it on to you----SUICIDE IS A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO A TEMPORARY PROBLEM. please memorize this statement.
only you know the severity of your emotional feelings. but, before they become more intense, please see a psychiatrist. with a combination of talk and drug therapy, there is help available.
i'm worried about you. i've been in your shoes. don't give up on life, fight to keep it.
post at any time so i can keep track of your emotional state, please.

Life is what happens while you are making other plans. And if you want to make God laugh, just tell Him your plans.

Do things different, think positive. You can't change what you have done but you can improve on what you will do. Best of luck!
