Decision Making

Haven't we all had a time in our lives when we are riddled with doubts and fears?

Are we doing the right thing? Are we in the right career? Are we in the right relationship?

What happens when we have to make adecision?

We obsess about making the right choices and are fearful for making the wrong decision, lest we cannot correct it. We stress and worry and ask other people for their opinions, knowing that ultimately we have to make the decision for ourselves.

We pressure ourselves to make a decision often before one is called for, "just in case" that scenario should happen.

What a huge waste of time and energy!

When we are so focused on the future and what could happen, we are missing living in the present moment, and not enjoying life at all.

If you have a decision to make, regarding an area of your life, first ask yourself this question.

Do I have to make a decision right NOW?

If not, don't!

When we try and force change, we often make mistakes because we are trying to force something into existance that isn't ready yet.

If you don't have to make a decision yet, don't! Do NOTHING! Sit back and relax and watch the situation unfold. Things may resolve without you having to do anything at all, but just be.

Sometimes doing nothing is the hardest thing to do, but the most effective.

Sit back, relax and enjoy your life.
