Now it takes forever to complete anything that's not in my best interests. Procrastination can turn you into an awful someone. Some people might view you as an irresponsible person or just a very lazy a******. The story of my life. Thank you, Gerry.

I procrastinate way too much and after watching this video, I will try to change this. I know from experience that when I put off the things I could do today until tomorrow, tomorrow never comes. For example, I never write my essays until few hours before due time. The work that I produce turns out to be horrible. I have expired tickets and library books to pay for, which is terrible as well. Believe me, procrastination is a habit and I've had it for many, many years. (more)

I'm 20 years old and I'm filled with regret.

I grew up in poverty and never made friends.

I went to an expensive college and don't know how to pay it back.

I planned for the future and tried to be responsible, but everything always backfired.

I moved away from family and am now struggling financially.

I majored in English and can't find a job.

I couldn't go to the doctor when I was young and now I'm disproportional because I didn't know about my Vitamin D deficiency.

I feel like an old man.

Anxiety is a big regret, prevents one to live thoroughly.

This is my first time coming across this video and I would like to say that you are really inspirational to me as I am a person who has always dwelled on regretts and is trying to get over them.

ThusSpakeSpymunk- that's a really sad story man, I can only hope you change your mind soon and start living life to the full, or at the very least are completely and unquestionably happy with the way things are at the moment.

As for myself, I'm only 17 so I don't have many years under my belt, but if I could change something it would be how I interact with people and spend my time. Had I been more sporty and outgoing I wouldn't be so shy and cynical now, so I think, but it's never too late =]

also on love. It made me realize that hate is stronger than love, and that's a terrible realization to have in life. If two people love each other it makes them weaker, not stronger. Like a chemical dependence. I am half done with my life and know now that love, this thing others seem to enjoy, is a sad lie. This has been my outlook for 5 years now. I don't expect it to ever change. If only I'd never met this person, I'd be a lot better off. Better to love and lose? Never.

I ran out of space. It was the one person I ever truly loved and I failed. I've lost out on love forever, now. I tried for 10 years to achieve the level of ability/appearance I needed to be worthwhile to this person, and then I was told it was too late and I failed and had not done enough. Now I don't really have the time left in life to build a new relationship and I'm too exhausted from the previous attempt to try. This experience has really soured me on people in general and (more)
