How do you make decisions? How do you decide which is the right way to go, what the right answer is or what choice will make the best outcome? Do you toss the dice, flip a coin, pick a card? Some decisions are really easy; wear the pink shirt with the grey pants. Some decisions are very hard; do I stay where I am or do I move on?
I tend to sit on the fence for far too long and let me assure you that your butt can get pretty numb up there after awhile. The process of making a decision can actually paralyze you into not making a decision and that is sometimes even worse. The passivity of doing nothing because you are so afraid to make the wrong choice is an all too real occurrence.
Sometimes after the choice has been made and you have resolved to move forward in a particular direction an immense peace and sureness comes to you and you know that you did the right thing. It’s those decisions that still niggle in the back of your head that can leave you reeling sometimes. You have to make the resolution to let that go. It’s done. You are given the gift of today to learn from your choices and decisions of the past to hopefully make better ones in the future.
Get off the fence, go with your gut and if that doesn’t work say a prayer, you’ll be surprised how quickly the answers will come to you.
