Change your life

My mom and I find an apartment we can afford and can move in.
We live too far from anything out here.
 
I want to bring change in my attitude and mindset, as they are the reasons which prevent me from achieving what I want. Once I had got positive and growing attitude, I could overcome all of my shortcomings.

:smile:
 
If I could go back to that day when in my own worst moment I gave into my own dissociative selves and gave away faith in the world, to resist the temptation, I would.

But deep down, I know that it likely was inevitable anyway. It's easy to say in hindsight what you think you should have done and whisper what-ifs to yourself, but ultimately it is better to accept your lot in life and move on than be perpetually stuck in the shadows of the past.
 
Not much. I'm young, and I admit, what I want to change currently is a lack of drive to do it. There's nothing mystical that I couldn't take accountability and fix myself. I also think all major events have led me to this point.

I guess the one regret I have that can't be fixed is messing things up with my closest friend. Someday I would like to make repentance for being ignorant. It's rare to have a friendship that great, and I took it for granted. We are no longer on speaking terms.

Regret is a demon to carry on the shoulders.
 
I wish I had not been stuck in my "trauma bubble" for so many years post-high school. I wish I had applied myself to a college degree for a career instead of just for fun. Basically - I wish I had lived for the future, not the moment.

Under normal circumstances I might be less bothered by my past and just have to deal with it, but instead I'm under circumstances where I'm moving to a much more expensive state because of the political climate and my well-being. I'm also scared for the country as a whole. Yet because I didn't apply myself to a degree for a good career, I'm not desirable to other, safer countries.

Hopefully they will be defeated in November and I can breathe a sigh of relief and move on with my life, but I'm scared things might not go that way and I wouldn't know what to do...
 
Similar to what Lapis said - would love to be able to have my own home and stop renting. Housing overall is just so outrageously expensive.

Okay, yes, the boring cheap answer is "I want a million bucks" but... the answer I'm going to give is "I want a million bucks". Or ten million, whatever, I'm open to bargain. Just make it a lot, and make it come in regularly.
Stuff's not going great right now and financial security is something I've been wanting for the past few years. Knowing I won't have to worry about being broke would give me a lot of peace of mind and allow me to do things more confidently. I don't want money to splurge or live a frivolous life, I just wanna live in security.

If we're talking strictly about changing past events, there are a few things I would've done back home before I made the decision to move out. I feel like things nowadays would be a lot easier if I didn't jump the gun and if I let myself actually take care of the things I needed to do instead of just doing one thing and telling myself "I'll be able to do the rest later, it'll work out!". I wish I could say that I'm currently a college graduate instead of actually being here looking into the process of applying in the first place.
 
I would make myself older; I'm currently 17 and frequently feel like my age thwarts me, I can't get access to credit to buy a car because you have to be 18 to sign for a loan, it's often a struggle to be taken seriously or be trusted IRL because I'm still a minor and it generally feels like I'm gated out of large portions of life because I haven't hit the magic number yet.
