      Not travelling Europe when I was young to see where I came from.
      I learned that career and getting stuff isn’t what’s most important.
      Like the Expedia add says “do you think we’ll look back on our lives regretting things we didn’t buy, or places we didn’t go”
      For the young people reading this, take your uni money and just go. Where ever that is. Just go. You won’t regret it.

    If I can add my two cents at my tender age of 59! I would say to my younger self, be patient, things will always work out fine if you make the efforts, don’t rush anything, get an education and once on the labour force then keep on learning new skills. Then find the right life partner, a person that shares your values, don’t rush it and make sure it’s the right person otherwise stay alone. Discuss with people up to a certain point but avoid lengthy discussions and arguments, they will lead nowhere. Always be respectful to people and not tough to anyone because everyone has an internal battle to fight. Money is important so spend your money wisely, never compare yourself with others, hang out with friends that share your values and stay away from people that are judging the way you spend money. Invest wisely and keep in mind that very high rate of return don’t exist. Learn to invest by yourself is very important and don’t rely on an advisor, they usually don’t know more than you. Finally, you have been given only one body and soul so take extreme precautions that means absolutely no drugs, very little alcohol, exercise every day and good food only. I wish I had followed these advice throughout my life. I did for the most part.

    The thing is if you are in your early 20s/30s you can’t have the same mentality as older people who have already lived it.
    It’s easy to say focus on your family/friends instead of work when your in your 60s, are wealthy/financially secure than when you are young with no home owned, no way of providing for a family or having money to pay for the basics to keep yourself alive let alone hobby’s/interests that make life enjoyable.
    You have to prioritise making money when young. Or am
    I wrong?

    Sprouht, over 2 years ago you commented on my video with less than 50 views (which i've unlisted now). It was a chaotic mess of a video but you commented such encouraging words through our mutual appreciation of Yes Theory and I wanted to take a second and say thank you. I first saw your video staying 24hrs in the largest mall and it was insanely professional, entertaining, and I could truly feel your passion. Seeing you now at 250k from the 20k before when that mall video posted is exactly the growth you deserved and I hope you even more soon. Your recent journal release and ALL of your videos are inspiring and truly the kind of content UA-cam needs.
    I'm heading into Film as well and probably going to upload content with Streaming but still your words have encouraged me to keep producing the best content I can. So Sprouht, thank you for your words and I hope I could return the favor. I wish that when I return in another couple years your exposure grows even more so others can see your passion with your content.

    Worthy questions to ask yourself but the one woman who said walk away from difficult people as you age is one of the better points. She was dead on right saying as you age you no longer care as much if everyone agrees with you and you see the waste of time that it is to get them to agree. Simple but wise insight. Plus, in the final analysis, it’s just nice to be nice as my late elderly cousin said many years ago.

    My biggest regret is not furthering my education and it is too late at 56. If I could I would retire at 60 but the expense of health care is a no go. Also priority on healthy eating and regular exercise which I started at 54. Money is needed but there is a limit for the exchange of time out of your life. I married the right man and its made all the difference in the world despite monetary setbacks - I wouldn't change a thing in my life since I married him 29 years ago 😅

    @poppykane7230 19 годин тому

    I spent 42 years with the love of my life until he passed away two years ago ( I’m 75) My biggest regret is that we hadn’t met each other earlier. We weathered all sorts of problems together that life inevitably throws and raised four amazing kids. But the essence in this is that we were in harmony, in love and did it all together. The foundation of those wonderful years empowers me to have a rich and rewarding widowhood.
    So the takeaway ? Only date “marriage material” and people who have the same values. The shiny people are not necessarily the ones who will make great life partners. Choose wisely ! Your future happens depends on this .

I also like the advice of “moving into your dream” and not necessarily living it right away otherwise there is nothing to look forward to. And stop being all things to all people, be yourself. And live your life to the fullest now.

It doesn't really matter where and what corner of the globe you're from - we all share many complexities and sentiments we face in this seemingly intricate and complicated life. When we try to bring guilt and past events, feeling the regrets about what went wrong, what could've, should've or would've been done better or "if only" whatever, we are living those feelings in that moment! What has been done is OVER and try not to indulge in feeling bad about it. Regret and guilt of past events are a waste of mental and emotional energy. This is the reason why our face is put in front of us so we can "move forward" and not walk backwards!😃

    Wow...such good advice from each and every one of these amazing people! Thank you for this! Bill Perkins' book, Die with Zero, touches on a lot of themes covered in these interviews. Live for today and be in the moment, but don't be reckless and still have a plan for the years ahead. We all die multiple deaths (there is a last time that you will hold your child's hand while crossing the street, a last time you'll lace up your skates or run up the stairs)... so invest in your future, but don't invest too much in your future. Some things need to be enjoyed right now. And, if you are the type of person who wants a life partner, this really is your most important investment as the last lady stated. Wishing everyone out there peace, contentment and joy, RIGHT NOW, regardless of what age or stage of life you're at.
