Once you begin to believe there is help "out there," you will know it to be true.

I look at a lot of stuff and say "I couldn't have done that", because it just wasn't me. My brother went down a different road than me and is quite well off with lots of toys, but I think I had more fun.

As Popeye said " I yam what I yam". At this age I can change little things but there is no time for big changes. 

It's not the age I mind, it is all the mileage. 

Besides when it is all over who will care or remember. I had my 15 minutes of fame and actually got into a paper be it a local one. So what, it is the little things that aren't noticed that count. And I bet you have lots of those.

Remind yourself regularly that you are better than you think you are. Successful people are not superhuman. Success does not require a super-intellect. Nor is there anything mystical about success. And success isn't based on luck. Successful people are just ordinary folks who have developed belief in themselves and what they do. Never - yes, never - sell yourself short.
- David J. Schwartz

Sometimes I look at others, without envy and say "i could have done that"

Sounds hard to me and not that much fun. Aim high, and accept what you get is my motto.

Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.
- Brian Tracy

Becoming a disciple of what is right & important sounds challenging

If you were failure proof you would be a God and too busy for us poor mortals who would pester you continuously.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
 
this is a good thing to look at for the end of day

Having once decided to achieve a certain task, achieve it at all costs of tedium and distaste. The gain in self confidence of having accomplished a tiresome labor is immense.
- Thomas A. Bennett

I felt this in a small way having just finished 4 sundays taking  a course for 4 hours over six weeks on home renovation
