How Do You Know if You’re Making the Right Decision?!!
Well, the answer is…you don’t know…not really. And this is frustrating.
And confusing and just all-around anxiety provoking. What to do?
There’s only so much you CAN do. Try to be pro-active. Try to gather as much as information as you possibly can. Try to have *gulp* faith.
Because, what if the decision that you are making turns out to be ultimately, not the best decision? Then what? Or, what if conversely, the decision turns out to be completely and totally life changing for the better?
You simply can not know these things NOW. You can only know them THEN when you are actually in the situation and circumstances that your decision has brought you to. This is a very difficult situation to be in.
Because I think as humans, we are mentally and emotionally wired for certainty, even while knowing inherently that rationally and logically, “certainty” is, at best, illusory. I mean, some things, I suppose, are fairly certain, but so much of life is completely out of our control. And maybe that’s the thing: certainty is inexorably linked with a sense of control.
So, that feeling of giving onself over to something, “the letting go” part, is extremely difficult. This is where I am at, right now. It’s frustrating for me.
