Regret is the worst poison you can induce in your life. Most people come to realize this when there are 70-80 years old in a retirement home. Thinking how many things they wanted to accomplish but they didn’t do it because of their excuses. We all want to work hard and get a better life, which sadly most people assume is by acquiring things of high monetary value. People will spend 20-40 years of their lives, working for a company they hate, neglecting themselves from enjoying life, so that they can get thousands when they retire at 60/70 years. But when they reach that age, some feel too weak to travel or go mountain climbing, then they start regretting why they din’t enjoy life in their youthful age. The money their saved will be used to pay for their medical bills caused by the stress they faced for 80% of their lives working.
Most people work in professions they hate, waking up each morning wishing they didn’t have to go to work. This makes them even less productive in their jobs because they hate what they do. Why work for company that you hate??.. Go work in the area you are passionate about and you will be happier. Some young adults go to universities to purse a degree that they hate, they do it cause their parents forced them to do it. Why live your life the way other people want you to?? It’s your life and you only have one life to live, choose wisely how you will spend it.
If you are working in a job you hate, QUIT IT!!!!!. If you are pursing a degree you hate, DROP IT and go do what you love.. Don’t wait until you are 70 years, to start regretting why you let your dumb excuses hinder you from doing what you love.
Oh wow Tracy! This post stir up the emotions and make us retrospect..
