Consider this… if there were some type of time/space probability machine that could predict with 100% accuracy the results of changes in history, what three moments in your life would you consider changing, and in what way?
 
My three are very easy…

1. The moment my DNA mutated and I got stuck with my birth defect. I’d be very interested to see what life would have been like without my disability.

2. My decision to move from CT to MA in 1998 at age 23. I knew I needed a new job and living arrangement but the move to Massachusetts, to live with friends of mine from college really did set me back by a decade plus by the time it was over.

3. What if I’d ignored the email message on Match.com from the woman who is now my wife?
 
Interesting thought exercise.

There are lots of things we look at that were "bad" but they all also made us who we are today.

If I choose not to get married at 22 to a woman I barely new I would have likely never joined the Marines and thus never meet my current wife of 31 years.

I could choose not buying our first house which was well over what we could afford, but that very hard lesson led us to being as finally successful and stable as we are today.
 
Walking off a job with no notice. Crazy great day.
 
I would change some hurtful things I have said.
