The past is a place filled with two side of a coin; the good, the bad and the ugly scenario, decisions and the likes, that we've made or naturally played out, and surely when given the opportunity to go back in time to make amend or do something right, we'll all surely have enough on our sleeve.
And this week @hive-learners Community featured topic for the 1st edition in the 10th week, prompt us the write about what we'll do if given the opportunity to go back in time, below is the extensive topic explanation, in case you want to join the train and share your thoughts.
TEN MINUTES Imagine you had the opportunity to travel to the past, any year at all in your lifetime. But only for ten minutes. What will you accomplish in that short timeframe? What are the things you will try to change? Feel free to tell us.
DON'T ACCEPT THEIR EMPLOYMENT LETTER
Getting employed in a top organisation that pays well is the major dream of all undergraduate/graduates, and that was how I felt when I got a well paying job at an organisation few month after I graduated some years ago, but that doesn't last for long because after working for about 6 month there, I got involved in an incidence that inflicted me with a injury, and that injury as serve as a plague that ushers in depression and the like, and due to that I had to leave the place despite being offered a life time employment, so if I've the opportunity to go back in time, I'll surely make sure I turn down the employment letter of the organisation or anything related to them.
INVEST IN CRYPTO
The year 2009 was when bitcoin came to existence, and if I could remember vividly, then I was working at an organisation being payed a salary of 20,000 naira as a secondary school graduate, and despite getting such amount as salary, I hardly get up to 1000 naira for my self, because my guidance were the ones who collected the salary, and anytime I ask for more, they'll start complaining about how much they spend on my feeding and upbringing, so I had no choice but to let go of it, but if assuming I have the opportunity to go back in time, then I'll struggles with them and make sure I at least get two month of my salary to invest in bitcoin then, because as at 2009 bitcoin wasn't even upto $1, and if such actions were to be taken, I know by this present age, Dangote won't be the one regarded as the richest African on earth.
I know my actions will fuel their anger, but I won't mind, because due to the my salary they were getting, they fail to remind or enrol me for jamb to proceed with my education until my dad came for me 2years after.

Those are the stuffs I can place my mind on for now, but then, while writing and as well going through other people's write-up, I've come to realize that if we all had the opportunity to go back in time, then we'll surely have more than enough to change, which is good, but then we should use that as a charge to get better with our present decision, which our future self will be proud of.
Thanks for staying with me thus far, have a blessed week ahead.
