What’s a huge mistake you’ve made?
Oh geez, where do I start?
Is a failed marriage really a mistake if you have three amazing kids because of it? I haven’t decided.
When I was younger and fueled by ego, I was too judgmental of other people. Do regret that.
I’m not blaming my Dad but I grew up around too much of the three C’s that Jay Shetty says are the absolute worst: complain, compare and criticize. I did too much of that also, for much of my life.
Not taking better care of childhood memorabilia. When we were kids there was this company called Regal, maybe it still exists but I doubt it. This was obviously pre-internet days but you could order gifts and all kinds of things through them.
Anyway, Mom ordered from Regal for each of us, a School Days Treasure book where you would put your photo from each grade, also schoolwork like certificates or anything you wanted, into an envelope inside the book. It was sort of like a big journal with prompts for each grade like favourite memory, best friends, etc.
Somehow I lost mine in my million moves throughout life. I wish I still had it to show the kids.
