Decisions

You know what’s hard? Making decisions... not!! Okay so here is the thing on decisions it’s not about the actual decision its about the work involved making a decision. Everything we do is a decision, and some of those things are much easier then others. Like you figure out what to eat for dinner. You can make something yourself or you can get something from a restaurant. Then you have all the choices leading up to the decision. You ask do I want to do the work and cook a meal with what I have, or do I want to have the convenience of just getting food made for me. Then once you decide that you have to decide where and what you want to eat.

This goes for the same in life. All things we do are decisions we made. Who we date, where we live, where we go to school. These are all decisions we make and they are based on the pain vs pleasure cycle. We make decisions that are easy and require no work without even hesitating while bigger dilemmas we sit and think about everything involved. We consider our options and usually most decide on the path of least resistance. When we want to do something the choice has been made. Then comes the steps that lead up to the fact of the “why.” So we decide then we start implementing everything with action. We are on the high because we have made a decision and there is minimal effort needed in deciding something. Then that continues until we start hitting road blocks and obstacles. Everything starts to stress you out all based on one decision you made. All that hard work ahead you ask the question, “Why am I even doing this?” This question is the turning point of where you need to recommit to what you first started with.

When we make decisions it’s not so much the hesitation of making a choice but the fear of choosing the wrong path. But there isn’t really any wrong paths in life, there is just points of modification and re-evaluating. Decisions are only hard because we strain our mentality to see a clear picture. All that mental focus on trying to control an outcome that can’t be controlled. There is no real answer because the future hasn’t happened yet. So you can assume, but those really never work. Or you can commit to the choice and give 100% to it.

Are there any decisions in your life that you haven’t made or are in the process of making? Do you want to move out of a relationship but you can’t out of fear? Do you want to date someone but your afraid to make the first move? Do you want to jump ship at your job and start a flower shop? Listen fear will always hold you back if you let it. We put things off until someday and you know what they say about that? It will never come. We believe we have to mentally prepare ourselves to take the reigns and have control here, but with anything you just need to take the leap. If you take the chance on yourself and fail, well that will give you so many more lessons then success ever will. So are you going to finally decide on the things that have been bothering you? Or are you going to keep waiting in hopes that the universe will send you a great big sign saying hey now’s the time, do it! Take charge and decide for yourself, because you are worth it.
