What i'm saying is as a person it is very hard to feel completely satisfied and completely accomplished. We will always want more than we have or something different altogether. We will always have regrets, we will always wonder where a different path may have lead, we will always look back and and see gaps that could have been patched. This is just human nature.
In ten years you will look back on what you are doing now and wish you had done it differently or done something different all together. For this reason what we do now doesn't really matter at all, because no matter what we do, we will be unsatisfied.
I've seen engineers who have become teachers and surgeons who wish they had taken a trade so they could go home at the end of the day stress free.
If you go to university and party hard your grades will be shit. In ten years you'll wish you would have buckled down and done your best at school.
If you go to university and go through with your nose buried to the brim every single night in a book. In ten years you'll wish you would have let loose and lived a little while you were young.
I'm just saying that we need to embrace this reality of unsatisfaction, be aware of it, move past it and beat it.
Make decisions on a whim and do whatever you feel like in the now, because in the end there is no "right path". No matter what, you will always see how you could have lived your life better looking back on it, but we cant see where our life is going to be in the future.
You could meet your wife tomorrow, maybe you never will.
I try to take as much advice as I can from people older than myself, giving me tips and telling me what they would do if they could go back. Because they have already been through what you are going through and they know what they are talking about. (well some do)
There's no right way, just do what you feel is right, even though in the end it will never have been the "best choice".
