If you don't succeed in initial two attempts, pursue a course that is good enough to fetch you a good earning job.HRM(or maybe any other course too) from TISS is what I will suggest you to pursue. It isn't very difficult to crack and you will always be assured of a good earning job.

This is for the average humans, special Purush will have special features. 


1. Early 20s is a time when you have a lot of energy,

2. Moreover the recovery rate of the body is so high that you can pull an all nighter studying, have a night out on foot or maybe just binge drink whole night, the body won't even notice it. (this superhuman capacity will start to decline ~27+, however with a good health regime it can be managed)


a. So you virtually feel Limitless and Timeless

b. BUT this high entropy coupled with low experience can cause you to be rudderless.

c. you have so many options and so many desires with so much of time, if not careful, priority inversion is inevitable.

d. every choice you make shall extract an opportunity cost (eg mains over prelims, career over relationships, processed food over fresh produce)

e. what choice you make will be depend on your personal taste and priority.

f. in reality,  your present form isn't timeless or limitless.


So to dodge regret like a pro take some time out, focus on things that you have to live with ( eg  your 'self', your body, your mind, your goals maybe that special someone(s) you would want to/have to spend the rest of you life with )    

In short do the right things at the right time and you will have a happy, fulfilled, wholesome life.

Sometimes you will have to make some sacrifices, say some goodbyes, maybe a few heartbreaks.

Realign your being.

That's life.
