If I could restart my life, I'd be more focused on investing in experiences and relationships than material possessions. I'd travel more often (riding my bike of course!), cook bigger meals with friends and family, enjoy the little moments that make up every day a bit more, challenge myself to learn new skills constantly but never forget self-care along the way. All this while keeping up with nursing at the hospital - cause hey you gotta pay those bills!

If I were given a second chance in life, I would make better use of the time you have as a child. Once you start working, it's so hard to maintain friendships and do things that were natural before.

No change, i would be scared to change anything, I am rather pleased at where I am and what I have become one change and you have a different experience and would be something different.

If I could restart my life, def try to take some diff paths. Grow up quicker and make wiser decisions regarding relationships and money. Have more passion for cars & sports earlier on so I'd know exactly what I wanted out of my career sooner - wouldn't need to be wastin' time hopin' around ;)

Start fresh. Live w/ intention & positivity, pursuing my passions: sailing, hiking, and traveling more often but only when safe. Source reliable income by staying in programming field while additionally developing side projects like apps that support climate change solutions. Prioritize quality family time with the kids; focus on positive dialogue rather than criticism or control to foster independent creative mindsets ids to equip them for real success in life. Make better dietary choices — curtail processed foods and preservs to emphasize nutrition-rich plant based ingredients as a foundation of our meals wherever possible. Aim higher personally - stay accountable/questionable opinions without leaning too heavily into perfectionism while remaining realistic yet open minded towards any given challenge!

If I could re-start my life, I'd focus more on school and being active. Instead of playing video games all day, I'd take up some sports or get into a new hobby. Maybe join a club at school! And when it comes to TV series, only watch the ones that are educational rather than wasting time watching random shows.

If I could restart, I'd join the military again. Work hard and make friends who understand me - something I sadly never had before. Nothing else matters more than having a sense of purpose for life.

If I could restart my life, I'd be less negative and try to find a job. Instead of getting angry over things I can't control, I'd focus on the positives. And if anyone tries to provoke me I would ignore them instead.

If I could restart my life, I'd make sure to be the best American patriot that I can so all those liberal socialists don't upstage me. Living in Texas and lovin' it! Guns and Jesus are must haves - gotta get myself a big truck too for when ya need ta go somewhere real fast-like. As for religion? Proud Christian 'n Trump Lover fer suuuure! Don't reckon spelling mistakes would be such an issue on account of most folk'll understand whatcha mean if yer talkin like a Texan anyways....got any other questions?:)

If I could start over, Id get funnier and definitely creepier. Plus more sports talk. Alcohol intake would stay the same--I mean why not? And plenty of reflection on the good ol' days...that's a given.

If I could restart my life, I'd focus more on things that bring me joy and make the most of every experience. Life is too short to worry about unnecessary stress and worry - so I would prioritize taking risks, exploring new interests and having fun! Also, travel as much as possible while you can since you never know if another opportunity will come around. Finally, work towards something greater than yourself and don't ever be content with just okay – always strive for greatness!

If I could restart my life, the first thing I would do is take an inventory of where my strengths and weaknesses lie. Then, I'd create a plan for myself that focused on taking full advantage of my unique gifts while also addressing any areas in need of improvement or adjustment. From there, it's all about execution! I'd strive to be conscious every day of how I'm using my time and energy in order to pursue meaningful personal growth and make meaningful connections with those around me. In addition, as part of this "restart" journey, learning new things will always be important – collecting stories from far away places fuels creativity and helps bring fresh perspectives into everything we do.

If I could restart my life, I would focus on helping others more. Rather than simply offering assistance, I'd strive to do so in a meaningful way. That includes taking the time to teach those around me new skills and ways of thinking that can empower them too. Additionally, I'd carve out more space for learning new things myself; whether it be something related to my career or purely for fun! Lastly but perhaps most important of all, is fostering better relationships with loved ones – by listening actively and being present in moments big and small.

Start over and become a world-renowned meme lord. Live on mashed potatoes, never wash my hands, always be making witty comments up in chatrooms 24/7! Or sumfin like that :D

Given the opportunity, I would put a renewed focus on self-reflective activities. That's to say that many of my life choices have been informed by external expectations instead of personal ones -- if I were able to start over, those decisions made out of habit or expectation would be replaced with measured thought and reflection. As such, I'd spend more time thinking about what my larger purpose is in life: Where am I headed? What do I seek fulfillment from? Do these interests drive me forward towards a better tomorrow? All too often we make our most important decisions without much meaningful consideration as to why they are being made at all; if given a second shot at it all, this area of contemplation should take priority over any other decision making process.

If I could restart my life, I would definitely focus more on learning new skills and sharing what I learn with others. Specifically, I'd take the time to really understand people's problems; not just providing generic solutions but helping them find practical and effective ways of achieving their goals. Additionally, I'd make sure to include some fun activities in my daily schedule so that even when things get tough motivation isn't an issue!

If I could restart my life, I'd probs do everything the same 'cept get laid more often. Get rich quick by becoming a drug dealer and buy nice cars for all the hot chicks out there to try and impress them. Maybe even start a harem or somethin'. That way they'll be obedient to me and do whatever it takes to please me - now that sounds like a sweet deal!

If I could start my life anew, I would try to be even more helpful and loving than before. By Heavenly Father's grace, I'd make a bigger effort to live the right way - relying on Him for guidance in all aspects of life. And perhaps spend less time tending my cats and more with people around me who need kindness!

If I could restart my life, I would focus more on experiencing the little moments. I'd make a conscious effort to slow down and savor each day instead of rushing through it without taking time for myself. Additionally, I'd be sure to strengthen my relationships by showing gratitude toward those who have been there for me and making an effort to get together with family or friends--even if just virtually at this time! Finally, although it may not sound very exciting in comparison to other dreams such as starting a business or moving abroad, something else that has become important as the years have gone by is creating financial stability. This means setting up good budgeting practices--of course also saving up money when possible!--so that unexpected costs can be taken care of should they arise.

If I had the chance to restart my life, I would focus on doing more of what fulfills me. That means utilizing my problem solving skills and helping others through providing excellent customer service. In addition to this, I want to use my knowledge for further learning and apply it in practical ways so that I can become even better at what I do.

I'd make sure to live life to the fullest, enjoy all my friends and family plus meet new people along the way. I would also travel more with my husband and explore various cultures together. Embrace each moment for what it is without worrying or getting too stressed over things that don't really matter in the grand scheme of life. Life's too short not to be enjoyed!

If I could restart my life, I'd make sure to date as many hot chicks as possible and also hit the gym every day. Working hard isn't really my thing so maybe this time around I'll take a more chill approach and just screw around lol!

If I could restart my life, I would focus on helping others more. Throughout my journey, I'd use what it taught me to make a positive impact in the world and strive for making kindness an everyday lifestyle! Also, I'd try to take time out of every day to intentionally enjoy all the small joys that come along with living and never miss an opportunity learn something new. And if anyone asked me how they too should go about leading a wonderful life? My answer - with positivity & laughter as your constant companions!

If I had a chance to start over, the first thing I'd do is have more fun! There's no use dwelling on things you can't change. Instead, find creative ways to make your life an adventure – take up a new hobby, explore different cultures and try something out of your comfort zone. And never forget to laugh at yourself; nothing lightens the mood quite like laughter!

If I could restart my life, I'd use it as a chance to be an even bigger advocate for the environment and climate justice – focusing on both sustainable living practices and policy reform. Id be more aggressively vegan; not just in what i ate but in how I spoke about animal rights & veganism too! As a feminist, id fight harder against patriarchy & sexism – calling out oppressive behavior wherever/whenever possible!

I'd do the same thing again. Everything I have done has brought me to where I am now; why change it? If you don't like it, too bad for you!

If I could restart my life, I would devote more time to learning and growing as an individual. Rather than spending so much time absorbed in the same activities, I'd strive to explore new topics and find meaningful ways to challenge myself. Additionally, I'd focus on deepening existing relationships rather than striving for superficial connections with a large group of people who may not be invested in the quality of our relationship. Finally, I would work harder at building self-confidence by setting realistic expectations that are achievable through consistent effort and perseverance - It’s surprisingly easy to become disheartened when dreams suddenly seem unattainable or too far away from becoming reality!

If I could restart my life, I'd focus more on looking after myself. Make time for me - having regular pamper session days, doing yoga to relax and meditating to stay connected with myself. Balancing work/life would be important too; being a housewife/mum of two it's easy to put everyone else first but that means putting yourself last! Also investing in friendships rather than trying hard keeping up with acquaintances; real quality over quantity defo!. Lastly try some new things outta my comfort zone...like rock climbin' or skydivin' (I know this is harsh lol!) And yes always remember spell-check 🤓
