The hardest thing is choosing that ONE thing

[@Yolaf_]

@desireeccbut your just thinking of what to do not doing anything aren’t you? That the trap of your mind to feel better about yourself with no real progress I am trying to stop that

[@lhm1586]

@desireecc I dont know about north america, but here in Brazil you def cant afford to "focus" on many things, because even if you focus in one thing it is extremely hard to be successful.

[@innerbliss108]

@desireeccI agree whole heartedly. You can have one focus but what is mostly missing in the education system in the west is a broad understanding of all things which is much more important. 💫❤️🙏

[@NoraBhsas]

@desireecc I think that I should choose one thing at a time, to me, If I want to be successful in something I need to give it my all, if I choose many things then I can’t really give my all to them simultaneously.

[@DjR6307]

The second hardest thing is the music in the background 😂

[@mittelego1098]

The hardest part is to choose something. So many interesting jobs and disciplines. I'll never know if I should have done another thing

[@DavidGarcia-wr6ge]

It doesn’t matter what you choose, what matters is that you love your life and achieve other goals. Yes choose that 1 thing, but also do other things, hobbies, you can also change careers, life is full of wonders! Don’t look at the end because we all know what that is, instead focus in living. Be smart and choose a path you find interest in, if you grow tired of it then follow another path, for there are many paths, but choose one, one at a time, until things feel well, and if they don’t feel well then keep moving forward, keep moving that’s what life is about, life is about change, good or bad but that’s life. Do as you desire son, be smart, study or not, work hard or not, but live the life you want. Personally I recommend for you to study something and if you don’t like it choose something else, and so on and on and on and on, study and be smart and learn or get a trade or make a business, to be lost is a beauty, but we all face reality. Be happy always

[@Cjr_coaching]

Hey Mitt, that would be tough to not know if you should’ve done another thing. What do you currently do and does that fulfill you?

[@mittelego1098]

@@Cjr_coaching i'm a computer science major now and it does not really fulfill me. I'll probably switch to something with more science like chemistry or biology

[@seanundercover8229]

At least your interested in things it’s better then not having a start

[@laralilyLaraMaljevac]

He's absolutely correct ! I chose a path in life , when it collapsed my entire personality and identity got disrupted. Essentially became nothing . The path to review and find oneself again is definitely a dark one . If you are going through the same thing please remember ; you must stay true to yourself , be confident in your abilities, likes , dislikes , dreams , aspirations and never let something take that away from you . Sometimes God gives us obstacles and our dreams don't come true , but don't let the dark that you've gone through completely collapse you . Learn from that . Grow from that original identity.

[@Cjr_coaching]

It hurts to hear truth at an older age when you can identify all the things you've done wrong!💯. Tons of regrets!

[@irshviralvideo]

I'm an old child. I don't have one thing or good at one thing. I've just switched and done random stuff. I've also made my net worth from 0 to 4.5m in 20 years. I'm an old child. Not sure if I'm an ugly sight to see or aging chaotically. This guy is a complete jackass who generalized things and never gets into details and just wants soundbites to get hits.

[@omairkhan8189]

You must not live in regret. I believe if you could go back and change one thing it would change your whole life. Maybe for the better or worse. Personally I believe in you and love you if nobody else does. We might not know each other but we are all one family under the sky.

[@rizmacadillac]

I finished with my BS degree in College and decided things had fallen apart and I needed work to gain focus and direction Basically I was accused of being dishonest and lying though I had not cheated in any way and I had always done my work in School. Then I was told that "they" had lied to me. Regardless of who had lied and what had been lied about nobody wanted me and apparently they did not want to waste time on me. I did my best in choosing a University Major and in working hard and trying to do it all over again makes no sense whatsoever. I was hoping to grow in my Profession and continue to develop as that is what makes sense. And pointing fingers is no good because it is my life and I am responsible for it even if people in positions of responsibility are dishonest and lie to me.

[@CoconutBanger]

Late 30's and seeking to realign my career away from logistics. 3 different companies varying in size and scope. Brought in additional revenue for my company before layoff at the tune of 3 million annually. Still laid off.... I couldn't live with continuing this cycle of irrelevance, low value and lack of opportunity. The sentiments JP mentions rings true. You feel undisciplined and chaotic. However natural this experience has been insanely stressful and depressing. You lose status, value and are a liability to potential or existing partners.

[@Ali.lion23]

Keep it simple. Pick a job you can see yourself doing from looking at job activities, learn the skills needed for the job, and if you can learn this without needing to go to university then do this as you can learn everything online. But some require uni like med school. Pick something high in demand in your area of residence, learn the skills, choose 2 jobs related to skills be great at these specific jobs. Rather then 10 jobs you can be ok and make it harder for you to get a job.

[@abdulrahmanaboluhom8474]

The truth is acceptance and repentance from sin to obtain salvation from The Lord Our God is Our mission and our duty here on Earth. A career is just a job. You do that you are skilled in or can at least stay stable in for income and necessities. And if it makes you happy, that's nice, but it's not required.

I heard another conference that gives some context: children are all potential. But at some point the potential needs to materialize into something. Most people cannot pursue several paths at the same time, so we have to chose. If we don’t we remain a child “full of potential” and grow old with unused potential.
