Well i like this andyWink after 59 years there is a lot ! I wish I’d known´s


I wish I’d known that failure was an option


I wish I’d known how much my mum and dad really loved me, and all the warnings I got came from a place of love


I wish I’d known that home really is where the heart is.


I wish I’d known that being positive can really change your thoughts which can indeed change your life.


I wish I’d known how to say No!


I wish I’d known that my thoughts actually control how I feel, and how I feel affects the way I see the world.


I wish I’d known that my mistakes would define me as the person I am today.


But fortunately, I have always known to live in the moment, and not in the future or the past.

Too kind Andy.  I was only adding to your tip.  Haven't come up with anything original that is relevant to all yet.  Have already voted for a few as there are some very good replies. Smile

I would have to say I wish I knew at 20 Everything I know now!


Experience counts!


Going by that, I was born in 1971 a really really stupid human being. So dumb was I that I was FORCED to attend school until the age of 16!!


By the time I left school I was ALOT smarter than I was when I was either 0, 1, 5, 10 or 14 years old and by the time I hit 20 I was at least half as smart as I was when I hit 40! Moving from 20 into my thirties I could feel myself becoming less and less dumb and at that point I thought I was much SMARTER than children or teenagers and JUST AS smart as anyone who was  fourty odd years old (although the 40 odd years old almost certainly thought that I wasnt quite as smart as them yet)! 


Hitting fourty it's by now all become clear to me that when I was a kid, teenager, 20 somthing, 30 somthing I was really dumb! Now I'm fourty I know everything about everything and I am indeed bigger than god!

When I was 15 I thought it was the perfect age to be!

When I was 20 I thought it was the perfect age to be!

When I was 30 I thought it was the perfect age to be!


Now that I am fourty I think I am at the perfect age!

However, when I am fifty I can guarantee I will look back and also consider myself the perfect age and I will think somthing like "Jesus I was a real dumb a55 when I was 40"    


IKP


Laughing

P.S. Take home message for those youngsters who think that I am making fun of them for being dumb is not really that your dumb when your young but that as you get older you get smarter! Even the 20/30 year olds who are ALREADY much, much smarter than me will be much, much smarter when they are fourty than they are now!


P.P.S. I'm half jokin and half serious by the time I hit 80 I reckon I will be 100% serious!! Undecided 


Tongue Out Wink Laughing

Things I knew at 40 but wished I had known at 20.



Remember the best idea or comment will win a 888poker shirt, 2nd 888poker hat and 3rd a deck of cards



Have you ever been driving late at night on a road with no street lights. You are driving with you hi beams on but the road it tight and twisty with little overtaking opportunities. An other car comes behind you with either his beams on hi or his headlights are set too hi and is dazzling you in you rear view mirror. Did you know your rear view mirror has a tilt leaver on it. That tilts the mirror about 30' down this still allows you to see what’s happening behind you but totally removes the glare. Give it a try it does work.
