Change is the only constant thing in life. I often change my mind and I must say I regret some and sometimes I’m glad I did it. I can’t even remember the last time I did

Recently, my perspective on personal boundaries and self-respect has evolved, especially concerning family, friends, and acquaintances. Raised to always be the better person, I've realized over time that tolerating disrespect towards my personal boundaries has led to mounting stress and anxiety. These negative feelings significantly impact one's lifestyle, physical health, and mental well-being. Consequently, I've shifted my stance to believe that individuals who fail to honor my boundaries, regardless of our relationship's depth, no longer have a place in my life. It's become clear that I should seek the company of those who contribute to my growth and positivity, steering clear of those who foster bitterness and anxiety. Surrounding myself with supportive and respectful individuals is essential for my overall health and happiness.

I changed my mind about something today. It was a business decision, and the shift occurred when I started to contemplate possible setbacks. Consequently, I had to adjust my strategy.

I changed my mind about marriage. It was last year, and this was because I discovered that I had more important priorities.

Once I take a decision, I always counter it in my head. Then compare what the results of both decisions would be before I go ahead to take action. In summary, I change my mind almost every time. I think everyone should too.

I'm quite indecisive and tend to make impulsive choices, which I often regret afterward. Thankfully, I usually take my time to carefully consider major decisions.

The last time I changed my mind about something was when I was planning to move away from home. I thought it would be exciting and give me more independence. But after considering how much I'd miss my family and friends, I decided to stay. It made me realize how important they are to me.

Basically, the last time I changed my mind about something was last week. I had a convention I was looking forward to attending, but it dawned on me that it would be a waste of my time. I would rather use my time for something more productive.

I like to think of myself as an open-minded individual who can change their views based on facts. My political ideology is a good example. I changed my mind on that once I could see that leaders did not have my best interests at heart based on the stats.

Prioritizing happiness over financial gain is a courageous choice. It reminds us that our well-being and fulfillment matter beyond mere monetary considerations. Sometimes, the best decisions are the ones that resonate with our inner values and aspirations.

Your story highlights the importance of introspection, especially during pivotal moments. It’s fascinating how a simple question from your father prompted such a significant shift in your life. By listening to your own intuition and recognizing that happiness shouldn’t be sacrificed for external expectations, you took control of your destiny.

Embracing change and having the courage to follow your heart can lead to unexpected opportunities and personal growth. It’s heartwarming to hear that dropping out of nursing school turned out to be the best decision you’ve ever made.

I have a trip coming up with some friends and I recently found out that they may not be able to go, not definite but a possibility. I'm used to the habit of worrying and thinking and pondering and questioning but this time, I just said to myself "Let it go", if we go, we go and if not, that's what's going to happen. you can't think you're way out of this and all you're doing is causing yourself unneeded worry and anxiety. The relief was instant. To immediately take my power back was amazing. I don't know what caused me to put it into perspective like that, probably my infinite awareness but it happened and in this instance, I'm glad I changed my mind and did something different.

Some hours ago. I guess things don't always play out the way we think they would. Nevertheless, we keep striving because we have to survive.

1) Last month , right after I had gotten the job I so much desired after putting in all the work, efforts and resources.

2) it was a Bank job.

3) I changed my mind at the last minute because I saw the bigger picture of how much of a great entrepreneur I would become if I use same energy I used in getting the job to build up my own business.

The last time I changed my mind about something personal was a few months ago when I decided to start practicing meditation. For a long time, I was skeptical about its benefits, thinking it was just a trendy fad with little substance. However, after hearing positive experiences from friends and reading about the scientific benefits, I decided to give it a try. To my surprise, I found it incredibly helpful in managing stress and improving my focus. Now, meditation has become a regular part of my daily routine, and I can't imagine my life without it. This experience taught me the value of keeping an open mind and being willing to reconsider my assumptions.

I changed my mind about something just today. I think that happens everyday, not just to me, but to alot of humans. It is something we have to do so that we do not make alot of bad decisions.
