This life REALLY isn't a rehearsal. You have one chance (or conscious chance if you believe in reincarnation) don't waste it being unhappy or unsatisfied. Do what you have to do and as long as you don't intentionally hurt someone, just do it, what do you have to lose (in many cases) nothing, what can you gain...everything.
