Happy Monday! A question for everyone. What is one idea you had that you thought would have been an awesome idea, but you didn't do (out of fear or being discouraged). Then, later on, someone else did your idea, and it became very successful.
The point of this is to make you reflect on your inaction out of fear. If you have an idea you believe in, go for it! Don't live in regret because someone else did it first.
In the wise words of Qveen Herby - "I never fail at nothing I only learn"

Been having trouble moving on since girlfriend ended relationship 3 weeks ago after 2+ years of dating. Before ending it she came over 3 weeks prior to basically give me a chance to work things out and we had a good discussion but then I went back into our routine and didn’t really fight for it or have serious follow up convos that we needed. Now I just have so many regrets that I let her go. I know we still love each other and left on “good” terms but can’t forgive myself for my lack of action.
