I would definately change things if I was given the chance to go back.

To me this is a question of, "Are you satisfied with your regrets?" And I am not satisfied with my regrets. In fact, I regret them.

I'd go back to college, in NYC, where I failed to bother to learn anything, failed to see anything, and failed to experience anything. Sure I came out of college with a good degree, got a good job, a great wife, I've got a nice house. But I regret now the opportunities I lost then.

I'd go back to high school when I quit showing up at my karate school after 12 years because I was out for a few months with an injury. Sure I still know lots of karate and I still practice as much as I want. But I never did open the school I was planning. I wonder how it would have gone if I did.

I'd go back...
