Small decisions are made every day, every second really. Some so minor we don't even realize we are making a choice, it's second nature. It is those more detrimental decisions that affect more than just flavor of coffee, or if we turn left on a side road or go straight to drive home. The ones that affect others direction in life that we take more time to consider. Those are the ones that we lose sleep over, or contemplate the pros and cons. I find writing it down really helps. I suggest when you face decisions that create bigger emotions, make/take some notes. It may help you to become more aware of who it will affect and even help you to get sleep at night. Never be afraid of those decision though. No matter what there will be pros and cons to everything, even if it is just what to eat and when.
I chose many different times to go back to school to better myself, gain a different and new understanding. There have always been pros and cons. The only way to feel good about those is to make sure the cons are things you can live with. Never make a decision if you know in your heart it goes against your morals. It will never be worth it.
I do it a lot...but it seems that it is yet again that time in my life to make a decision. Though I do this often, I know that some decisions have more of an impact than others. I guess it's time to start planning. Yes, I suggest planning because it really can help ease your mind. Yet, I also know that spontaneity is also really amazing for your mind, body, and soul. It is great, sometimes, to just throw caution to the wind and do the unusual or unplanned. Brings a little spark of excitement that all human beings really do need.
If you have read my past posts you know that my father told me to make sure I was right, then to go ahead...I still feel that this is the best action. Right can mean moral, or just but it can also mean what will make you the happiest.
