What do you wish you would have known sooner?

I'm taking a couple week workshop right now and I just had a session in a breakout room with someone and she is significantly older than me, probably by like 30 years or so or so. And it was interesting because there was a point where she said, you know, I wish I would have done this earlier, I wish I would have learned these skills earlier. I'm so proud of you, keep investing in yourself

And not once did I pause for myself to ask myself, is this something that you really want to do? Why? Or why not? I just was on this constant hamster will of seeking their approval versus knowing deep within I was already approved, whether it met their standards or not, to know I am good enough as I am today, as I was yesterday, and as I will be tomorrow, I am good enough

Later I found out really the only reason he came to see me was to try and sell me an insurance policy, because he had just started with this new insurance company, and that was disheartening. But regardless of that, I should have taken what he said for what it was worth, which would have been a very sound, solid, safe investment. If I had purchased the life insurance policy because of compound interest. The money that I would have been putting in month after month

So there's no regret in it, necessarily, but the lessons that I think may have yielded me more potentially from my past experiences would have come from a knowledge base of again, the bingo is loving yourself. That everything I seek is found through self love and self compassion

But now, looking back, I'm like, oh, those were some of the happiest moments that I've had. And then I wish I just enjoyed it a little more when I was there. Just things like that. So I just wish I appreciated things more. I'm trying to work on that, for sure
