What did you wish you knew back then?

I wish I understood string theory when I was 30, and come to think of it, 20 years later, I still wish I understood it. Maybe Soldiergirl will explain it to me.
I wish that I had understood that my physical being is simply a vehicle for my spiritual being, because my physical being makes everything so complicated by thinking, speaking, and acting too much and too off course. When my spiritual being is driving we get to where we need to go. If I had known that 30 years ago, I'd be much farther along my life path than I am now.
Wherever you go there you are.
If you are going the wrong direction, no matter how far down the wrong road you are, turn around. Ask competent people for directions.
Don't waste time letting your "ego" be proud and stubborn; or even superficial and manipulating.
Don't just discipline your body - discipline your thinking process.
Develop intuition.
You are a Divine Being - let your spirit do the driving.
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need. Sort out desire carefully, and then enjoy.
