I don’t have any big regrets about my education, but I was one of the lucky ones that changed her mind while she was still in college, and I was able to change my major without getting too far behind. I went from International Studies and Political Science to Kinesiology. No matter when you make the switch, I think finding something you love is so important!

I don’t regret my education. I regret taking out student loans when I didn’t need to. All 3 of the regrets you mentioned are ones I have. but I saw a great quote “Never regret anything because at one point it was exactly what you wanted” I’m planning on getting this tattooed on my wrist for a daily reminder to look forward not backward!

I graduated with a degree with Pre-Med when I knew all along I would be a stay at home mom when I had babies. Now I never plan on going back to medschool when my kids are grown so I still have no clue “what I want to be when I grow up”.

I regret my education decision alllllll the time. I’m a primary school teacher (5 – 12 year old kids) and I hate it. I’ve been on maternity leave for 5 years now and I have no intention of going back to teaching next year when I have to go back to work. If I could go back in time my career path is the only thing that I would change.

I love this post (your whole blog actually!). I can relate so much to this topic – there are so many days I feel that nagging “what if” feeling and there’s always feel to stay on a safe route and not take financial risks. I think it’s great to read your story on taking that risk and that if you work towards a passion, something can come out it. Life’s too short for regrets!

I am so happy I took the time to scroll down and read the comments! I am a first year attorney and my monthly student loan payment for law school is out of control! The good thing about the law degree is that hopefully it will appreciate in value someday, but that’s just really me trying to be optimistic! Right now I am working insane hours and keeping a tight budget just to pay my loans, so the word regret frequently creeps into my head when I think of law school! Thanks for sharing your comments – it helps to feel like others are in the same boat!

I completely agree! This is EXACTLY what I was thinking!
Take control of your own life, and if your regrets really affect you, then look into doing something about it.
I’ve realized that I need to pay more attention to my happiness- I have the tendency to ‘stick with’ things due to a sense of obligation, but have since learned that I really need to evaluate whether the effort is worth it in some situations. This can be applied to jobs, relationships, school, whatever! I’ve learned not to feel guilty about going for what I really want.

I love this post! I am so in “limbo” right now! I went to school for social work and currently work in a men’s shelter. I LOVE my job but I don’t know if I can do it for the next 40+ years. I have looked into other fields and cannot narrow it down. I fell in love with fitness and health after graduating but who the heck knows what will happen! It’s such a hard decision to make when you’re 18 years old!

I love the discussions above, but I gotta ask:
How do you make such a yummy looking drippy egg????? Mine never turn out like that.
