If you could go back and fix your mistakes would you do it, but you have sto start over and maybe go to first grade again and relearn or retrain for your job etc.. or would you let your life stay the way it is. ?

I wouldnt, because we learn and grow from our mistakes and failures, which make us stronger and help us grow in character. if someone has done no mistakes, they wouldnt learn anything, like Jesus .. jk :)

Tough question. While there is much of my life I like, some mistakes I made resulted in me being the person I am. I love my wife very much, but I let a love go once and often regretted the decision until I met my wife. That being said I would consider reliving life if I could take what I learned via experience with me. I would learn better study habits. I would apply those habits better educationally. I would choose to learn something for my enjoyment not just for occupation. I would learn to play a musical instrument as a child. I would learn at least one other language maybe 2. I would make it my goal to be nice to people others disdain or mistreat. I would avoid bad relationships in my life. Hopefully with these changes I would still marry the same person and have the same children. I would have the same occupation but with a better background and appreciation for other things.

If I remember all the things I did yet have the chance to start a new slate in life...I would definitely go for it. Then you could deploy all that knowledge to keep on improving myself...I would, in short, the most awesome first grader the world had ever known, and for sure the most awesome grown up as a consequence.
An idle exercise perhaps. Yet in India and elsewhere many people believe in reincarnation...the new slate...you were talking about. The problem is, they don't think you'll remember anything each time you go thru the circle of life...and that to some extent would be a tragedy.

IF I could go back knowing what to do to fix thing then absolutely I would. That way my wife would still be alive. If there was a risk I would make the same mistakes I made the last time then there wouldn't be a point.

My God, I hope not!!!
I figured, I have lived it, and I'm ready to move on... I wouldn't want to have to do any of this all over again.... I would hope to do better than what was given me to live with....... Because I have struggled all my life.... There has been some horrible things happen to me... I have seen people do stuff to people that make me fall to my knees.... and today it is as bad as can be.... but is not unbearable...... I wouldn't want to see this stuff again.... and I don't want to live with some of these people again..... (murderers, child molesters etc.... I dont' want to see this stuff anymore..... ))!!!
Yet..... if something can change in the past, then it wouldn't be the same life..... If we, (or I), could make it better starting with the past, then we'd, (I'd) better learn the difference today..... because if we could change yesterday, we wouldn't live the same life... and we might make it worse than it is today......
Either way, we'd still have to wonder one thing.... How and when will this end?....
Your sister,
Ginger

I wouldn't... Growing up is HARD! I've come too far to start over again. What's to say I wouldn't make BIGGER mistakes the second time around; or not be so lucky in some aspects.
I prefer to move forward and endure to the end... ; )

I'm sure that everyone would like to redo some phase of their life with the knowledge they now have.
I would not want to go back to the very beginning. Perhaps, 16 would be a good starting point.

Tough to answer, being as I can better decide on re-living my life once I'm dead.
As far as just being to hop back to correct mistakes.. I would only go a short while back or not do so without knowing all the consequences.

i think of that i could relive it if I have been given the possibility because of the fact then i could desire to splendid errors made interior the previous, changing my destiny... different than this, i think of that it it may no longer likely impression others around me that a lot till I have been to make some new acquaintances and motivated they're alternatives. yet yeah, which would be neet. i could probably exchange my existence-type alot, maybe attempt out some thing thoroughly opposite to me now. which would be spectacular to do!

Yes, I would do it in a split second. Since I have knowledge of the future (present) and I can take advantage of it like knowing which stock to invest! Which land to buy and who to sell it to. I would pass school with flying color since I knew the answer better older. I will make the right friend and avoid ther wrong people. Finally, I know which football team will win the super bowls so I will always bet on the winning team!!!
