What things in life do you wish you'd started doing sooner, or do you wish you could do more often?

Don’t mean to get woo-woo, just looking for some reflection.

Three things I wish I had done sooner: go to grad school, identify how and why I relate to people the way I do, and also, I wish I had figured out how to dress for my body type long ago. I wish I had done all of this stuff in my early 20’s.

I wish I would have realized the importance of having a better education sooner.

I wish I had stopped being a self-centered, reckless idiot, attributing it all to my “artistic temperament,” a whole lot sooner. Once I learned to apply logic to facts, and understood most people refuse to do so, I found life much easier. I wish I had learned earlier to give everyone the opportunity to prove who they are, to play life by the rules they select, and stop humoring or ignoring those who are taking others down with them.

I wish that I had realized the importance of school and education earlier.
.., and I wish that I had decided to learn an instrument sooner.

I would have excised sooner those parental voices in my head that said, “Don’t, too risky, be careful, don’t question, look out, THEY are watching.”
