Just got my DiveMaster in El Nido Philippines and now wondering if I shall continue to become an instructor or go back to my old office job. The diving changed my lifestyle a lot, was wondering who made the experience from having a regular good paid office job and then cut of from the old life and focused on working in the diving industry. Im worried I will regret this one day.

You might regret it more if you will not even try 
I am in process of doing exactly this- I have sold my house, divorced my wife, left 2 huskies with her, left my office job and going to Thailand in 2 weeks time, with one way ticket to do the IDC and then travel around SE Asia and then maybe central America.
Only time will tell if it was good decision, at least I will be able to say that I tried.
If you fail you can always go back to 9-5 job!
BTW- use the search function- plenty of posts on the topic of becoming pro
Happy diving!
