5. Gotten out of my career comfort zone.

I graduated college at 21 and started working. My jobs were fine, but if I had to do it over again, I would have taken more chances with my career.

I probably would have gone into broadcast journalism, or worked harder to be a professional singer. I would have done something other than go to a 9-to-5 that didn’t challenge or interest me.

I’m grateful that I am financially stable, but having a career that interests me would have made me much happier. I’ve played it safe instead of running the risk that I don’t excel at something. I’ve started writing, though, and that does challenge me.
