Being Forced To Do Something and then regrets after quitting?

And at the time, it seemed pointless and boring? And so when the time came to do the activity, whatever it may have been, you really hated doing it and didn't try hard. But later.. after you stopped doing it, you regret quitting and not trying hard?
Well I don't know if that made sense, but I stopped taking piano lessons about 2 years ago. Every time my mum told me to practice, I would take really long breaks in between each section/piece, and a lot of the time I would "pretend" to have practiced [say that I practiced when they went for walks, but really, I didn't]. I really didn't like playing piano before.. But now after I've quit and I've matured, I've realized my interest in music and playing the piano.. I love to play the piano but if I had actually tried while I was still taking lessons, I could be a lot better right now.
Do you have any regrets like this one?

I wish I was forced into more things..like sports..soccer..
but then I wouldn't want to become beefy cause I'm already muscular ..which is weird...

but i reeeeeally want to. its like theres two of me. one is making me do it, the other succumbs to the desire of going home immediately after school and watching asian dramas.
track and field.
ughh.
loved it freshman year, but sophomore year and jun10r year (this year) i totally lost all my confidence. in myself, my looks, everything.
and i wish my parents pushed me to be athletic. cause im totally not right now. my coordination SUCKS.
i wish i did ayso, but after my two brothers and sister did it..idk i was never given the chance/:
and i wish i couldve learned to play an instrument. like the piano or violin.
but no.
i was never really pushed to do anything really..except my mom tried making me do dance. but dance at mt middle school was for the ho es and girls whos personalities really annoyed me.
so h to the e double l no.
wow. im just one big ball of complaints.

-My parents made me take ballet lessons when I was four, but my mom says I was adamant about never going again after one class. I really wish I stuck with it.
-My brother signed up for Tae Kwon Do, which meant I went, too. We went for two months and he decided not to go anymore, so it's not really my fault.
-I really wish my mom forced me to take piano lessons. She pestered me a lot about it when I was younger, but I always said no.

Didn't want to, but I did for the sake of my sisterhood and that guy went bawling and started to cry going "How could youuuuuuuuuuu"
We never got an answer but now we have something affirmating our assumption

My mom wanted to switch teachers to a Vietnamese teacher at a house so it'd be cheaper
and easier to pay, but I refused because I thought it felt too awkward. It was sooo long ago
but I regret not wanting to, because then I'd actually HAVE a talent that I could work with.
Then I took vocal lessons by my own choice, but it was sooooo boring and the teacher who
taught me wasn't very good.. she was too easy with me, and she'd say 'oh, that's right!' even
though I just know it wasn't. So I guess I took advantage of that and didn't practice.
Neither did my sister, and we did what you did - took long breaks. There was a mirror in the
piano room, so we'd just sit there and camwhore and make stupid faces.
Sometimes, I despise being so lazy -___-;; I couldv'e been the least bit talented in music areas.

♫ i remember when my heart broke,
always keep the faith and hope to the end.
