#4 2024.04.08 About life's choices and results Sometimes I wonder, if I had taken the paths I once hoped but sadly couldn't take, would the outcomes be better than where I am now? I can't say for sure. It even seems that my current situation might be a bit better. Looking back at the most recent past, I would have joined Carrot, or before that, stayed at a financially challenging but enjoyable startup, even earlier, I might have met an Engineer co-founder and started a business, further past, I would have been hired as a Product Manager for Naver Maps. Thinking about the above paths from my current standpoint, they don't particularly appeal to me. So, What does this suggest? It suggests that my thoughts can easily change even after just a few months, and I might be rationalizing. Additionally, a future that is uncertain and not coming doesn't seem appealing because I can't vividly imagine the future. Not just me, but many others likely feel the same way. So, Could this be why we often meet people who say they don't regret their past choices?
