Alright you have a choice…

[zerofatzreturns]

You’re being held at gunpoint by a man from the future. This person says that you absolutely cannot stay where you are right now; the fate of the world depends on it.

Your captor offers you two choices. A, you can go back in time to a place of your choosing , knowing everything that you know now and take a second chance with life or B) Instantly gain all the knowledge and insight you need right now to become wildly successful and achieve happiness…what do you do???

I choose Door #2.

I wouldn't go back in time for any amount of money in the world. ;-)

Of course, I will choose #2. I think nobody doesn't want to be successful and happy at same time.
Money is not a guarantee of happiness.

^ So true. I did a whole study on the concept of "happiness" awhile back. Interesting stuff!

Yup, #2. Definitely. I'm very happy with the people who are in my life right now and going back and starting over would mess that up.

Big time.

I'd be bored stiff if I suddenly knew everything and were suddenly wildly successful. The joy is in the journey.

However, if I could go back to 2002 - 2005 when I was making a very comfortable living in this industry, with all of the knowledge and experience gained since, I'd be wildly successful, have avoided much heartache, and can only imagine the good I'd be free to do today for others.

Good question. It's great to reflect back on all of the changes in the past few years. Little in this industry lasts very long; you have to keep your eyes open, look forward, and constantly adapt.
