Have you ever noticed this? For instance, while preparing for an exam, you research and firmly believe one method will work well. Yet halfway through, you discover another approach that is even better.

At such moments, do not get frustrated. Simply adjust your pace and make use of everything you have already done. This is because the first method you tried may well have led you to find the second one.

Think about it: if you had not fully committed to the first approach, you might keep feeling guilty and regretful, and you would hardly be motivated to search for a more efficient alternative. Moreover, the experience of working through the problem with the first method helps you understand why the second approach is superior, as well as what drawbacks the second method still has.

So remember that the right things come to you exactly when you truly need them.

Keep moving forward. Never regret anything.

Do not cry over spilt milk — it is not worth doing.
