Okay. We cant turn back the hands of time; but since we are not dead yet, then atleast we could tell each other what we could have done differently in High School or life. This thread may help others. So keep it REAL. Okay let me start it off. If I could turn back the hands of time; I would have not let myself become a victim of insecurity. This messed up a lot of stuff. I was so insecure about my size that I let others make me feel like shit. This stopped me from going after my dreams of acting and music and girls that I cared for. I wish i could have worked the PE regiments at 10 years old in order to not be so insecure at 16. Now decades later; Iam happily married with children; but I still think about where I fucked up at. Btw: the people who made me feel like shit are no longer longer laughing at me; They are now applauding me for escaping the stigma and starting a life on my own. Now do you share something similar? Can you tell us what you should have done differently throughout your life.

Same as you DiscoDave. Also Not have been such a procrastinator. I have managed to do very well. A degree...very good job...left that and started my own business which is doing well and expanding at 28 years old. I don't know how i got anywhere when I really think about it. I have worked hard I guess when i needed to. Feel like I've wasted a lot of potential as I believe most people do. Insecurity has lead to a lot of procrastination in my life. And procrastination has turned into a habit that is tough to break. I hope to leave both of them behind.

On a lighter not I also wish I didn't run from girls who would chase me in elementary school because they liked me. Could have made out with so many girls at a young age and kept that going hahaha. My first kiss was from a 5th grader when I was in 1st grade. Great memory. She would take me to the playground and on top of the slide to kiss me. When i saw her coming home i would run to go see her, hahahahaha. Susan.

Nobody wants to here about my screw ups, and I am not happily married with children.
And Ya! we all wish we could have been doing PE from age ten. I never went to high school
a day in my life since I was out of the USA, but I did get a GED when I got back.

There is a place on the forum for posts like this one that have no one thing PE related to
talk about HERE. Deep-Thoughts. However, there are also guys on here that will talk all day about shit
like this.:cool:

LOL!!!!!
What negativity?
Your the one sounds like your hostile towards freedom of speech or something.
I guess you didn't notice the little smiling face at the end of my post.:cool:

I have noticed that you have done this to other people on here as well.
Accusing them of going off and the like, when it's really you that has the
problem.

I have been here since 2011 without one single problem with anyone so
I have a good record here, but you on the other hand are still just a newbie.
Why don't you focus on your PE, and quit telling me that you hope that
I may not get banned.
 
I would have paid more attention in school instead of just getting by. I also would have went for a four year degree for something. It is more like this for me is that I easily could have and just didn't. No regrets though.

I just wasted wasted a bunch of money for a two year degree that I have no interest in anymore. That is the only regret I have. Is the extra loans I took out.
 
Hard to say:) I left school in 8th grade and I have always wondered what school would be like if I had a prom or a girl from school or any of the things men get to experience in high school years. I did not work very hard but I really did not need to, by 8th grade I realized they could not teach me what I wanted to know so I went off on my own at 12 years old. I went from being a child to a man with none of the experience in-between. I know I missed a lot in life during these formable years but still, as painful as it was, I would not change a thing.

Amen brother! :cool:
 
I should have relaxed more. Not worry too much about stuff. And should have started working on self development at an earlier age. (I had a stuttering problem as a kid that i actually broke through at the age of 18) I should have been going for the girls ignorkng the peer pressure of the androgen kids who made fun of the guys who showed affection towards girls.

I should probably had changed school. As my teacher didnt like me.

I actually went from being the kid with special education. To become the guy with the international traveling high payed job.

And i should have believed in myself even though nobody else did.

I should have tryed to start a stairway washing company as a kid to get the experience

I should have been nicer to my mom.

When i skipped school i should have done more productive stuff (im the result of out of the box thinking. I work from the principle of doing what others can't. And i can only do this cause my life experience is different from others)

I should have avoided processed food and high sugar shit
 
This is a fabulous thread with a lot of wisdom. Remember that we can't change the past but we can use it to create a better now and now is what matters most because now is the beginning of the rest of your life.....love, live, learn and share with every part of yourself.
 
I've been thinking about this same thing a lot over the last 2 years, more specifically this year. Some things were unavoidable. Here's mine-

1) I should not have followed the advice/instructions given to me by family members and coaches (in high school and college)
2) I should have trained smarter to peak when I was supposed to, instead of going 100% every workout and not peaking as I should have
3) I should not have been so insecure in regards to my athletic performance against other athletes
4) I would not have had crushes on, asked out, attempted to ask out or have gotten involved with majority of the women that I did
5) I would never have looked at ļæ½ļæ½ļæ½ļæ½, as it only damaged me.
6) I would have never given into masturbation.
7) I should have not been so consumed with vengeance and wanting to prove people wrong that messed me over

On the bright side, I received an excellent piece of advice to "not hold a hand on the plow and look back", which is what I've been doing.

Thats it my Brother, dig up the past and all you get is dirty!
 
I have regrets, but I don't dwell on them. I can't go back and change them, but I can change how I react moving forward. No use worrying over something you can't change.
That's correct. There is no use to dwell on the past. We are a different person today due to our past. So our past self is not the same person as the person we are today. This gets complicated šŸ˜‚.
I think this is only true if you are a person that's aware of your behavior and shortcomings.
I know people who are probably the same today as they where 4 years ago. They never learn or change...

If we knew what we know now back then, we would have been a completely diffrent person back then. We would not be where we are today, and we would not be the person as we are today. Even if we would be able to go back and change it. It would not matter today. You can always think
If... maybe, what if
..and so on. But who would you be today, if you changed your past?

If I knew what I know today back in my past, I would have a extremely big penis already.
