If I can turn back time
1. I will not work on my current job but work in another company.
2. I will put shea butter lotion on my tummy when I'm pregnant to avoid stretch marks
3. I will enroll in an autosave with our company's payroll bank
4. I will have started investing in the stock market earlier
5. I will move out of my parent's house and rent
I wish I can dig in more to share to our younger fellow myLotters. My hope is that they can pick a thing or 2 that will change their life for the better. At the same time, get some wisdom from fellow myLotters as well.

I would have pursued Journalism or did my best in my previous job and be promoted as manager.

I hope we can do something about our career regrets and turn them into something better.

I don't think that I would go back and change anything. We learn from our mistakes and I'm the person today because of that.

@yoalldudes that's good that you feel like that, o always say everything happens for a reason. We might not no why at the time but we find out sooner or later.

Sometimes I feel that way as well. I feel that there are good things I have now that I wouldn't have had I chosen differently in the past.

I don't even have enough time to tell you all I would do differently.

I would not change anything, I am because of my past.

I hope I arrive at such a state of mind as well where I will be accepting and happy with myself and life.

There would be a few but I don't want to dig in past. Each mistake in past was a learning. And from here onwards I will take the lead and charge but still I am sure that I will make mistakes and that is okay. I will shoulder them

@yoalldudes I have consciously taught my self that and it has come with a lot of effort. My bitter experiences have really helped me to fine tune myself.

2. if you put shea butter lotion regularly now, maybe it would still help?
3. can you still join the autosave now since you're still with the company?

Yes, I can do the autosave if I stick with the company. Blogs say it won't be effective anymore, shea butter should be applied during or immediately after pregnancy. That one is a negligible, mistake though. I just thought I'd mention as well.
