I am the kind of person who believes that every choice has lead me to be where I am today. Good or bad, my decisions have brought me to where I am and helped to create the person I have become.
This is a really difficult question. The things I would have warned myself against are kind of personal. I would note though that if I had not made certain mistakes, I would not have found myself where I am. So I guess I really would not change anything. That's a pretty amazing revelation for me.
I'm not sure if there's anything. I suppose I might warn myself against going and getting a Ph.D. thinking I would become a professor. I didn't know that all colleges only want professors who will do a bunch of research whereas all I wanted to do was teach. But on the other hand, the degree has opened doors for me so I shouldn't complain.
