I wish I knew that 10 years ago. I wish I has the foresight. We don’t see the the issue until we are faced with the situation.

OK. A course in foresight.

Take a situation. Like:

I am searching for a job. I am offered a job today. Should I take it? Fast forward 10 years in your mind. Now imagine you are 10 years older and still looking for a job. Do you regret the job you didn’t take 10 years ago (which is actually today)?

There are other methods of foresight – like listening to advice on your issue after asking a reputable Orthodox rabbi.

Doing Mitzvot also helps. Following Torah allows a person to structure their life and make good life decisions.

Once a person in Mexico City, who recently had decided to observe Shabbat, had a good deal to sell his office building. The buyer wanted to continue negotiating close to the entrance of Shabbat. The seller said he must stop to prepare for Shabbat. The buyer relinquished the deal. The week after an earthquake shook Mexico City. Due to the many buildings damaged and his remaining intact, he was able to sell his building at substantially more than had he decided to desecrate Shabbat and go through with the first deal.

Hashem has foresight. Observing his Torah allows us to tap into it.
