Default PERSONALITY POLL

Ok guys, something a friend said this morning got me thinking about my personality, and that of my fellow bikers, so im looking to do a bit of research.

Im quite a go lucky kinda guy, rather regret things ive done than regret things ive not done etc.

My friend said it showed in the way i loved and rode my bike...

so i was wondering, what attitudes to life do you folks have? Are there any phylosophies that you live your lives too?

Please share...

GYKD

How about 'regret the things you haven't done - not what you have' You can't change the past but you can learn from the experience

Most of us would like to live life to the max I'm sure, after all, life is not a rehersal and giving back a pristine body when you get to the Pearly Gates is just a wasted opportunity. Trouble is, I'm too risk averse to go too mad and those responsibilities, and mortgage, and family, rather temper my outlook on life.

Thanks GYKD, I'm all depressed now.....

I'm having a "I'm now 30" crisis. Same job, same flat, same everything .. I'm a slave to routine. Taking any kind of financial risk seems like a gaping void ... but how else to break the cycle?!?

Seems like I'm gonna wake up and be 40 - somethings got to give.

Can you please stop referring to AGE!!!

I'm generally a pretty content bloke from a family, work, circumstances perspective. Having said that I get very angry over politics, environment.

Not sure where that fits in to the above as I don't regret what I've done or particularly have a burning ambition to live life to the max.
