The Best Place: Somewhere Else.

There is a disease of the deciding power that is becoming widespread: No matter where we are, majority of us wish we were somewhere else.

Are you happy with where you are?

Some of us, no-matter what we choose, always wish we had chosen differently.

Some men cannot choose a wife. Not because they are afraid of becoming a husband; but because they are afraid they will miss out on ‘someone better.’

And some of us, once we choose a thing and it becomes ours, immediately regret it.

My neighbor is infected with this condition. For years he wanted a Chevrolet. In fact, he said he would never drive anything else. So after hours of hard work and saving, he bought a Chevrolet. The minute he drove it home and parked it in the garage he said to me, “I should have bought a Ford.”

Some people always think the grass is greener on the other side.

Mr. Shoulda settled in New York but wishes he had settled in Florida.

Mrs. Wishihad sent her boy to Yale but says Harvard is better.

I know employers that hire and fire people simply because they cannot settle. If they hire Johnny Someone they think they would have been better off hiring Nancy Nobody.

I even met a person once that told me that the biggest regret of her life was that she was born in Upstate New York and not California.

If you rent you wished you owned; if you have not this you wish you had that; if you own gold you wish you owned silver.

Whatever ‘it’ is, is not good enough; and whatever did not happen should have happened.

Life is what it is.

Enjoy it!

Don’t be a Wish-I-Hadn’t.

Don’t be a Wish-I-Wasn’t.

Don’t be a Wish-I-Didn’t.

Have confidence in yourself and make the best of your decisions.
