Sometimes not making a decision is the worst decision we can make...

Decisions...decisions...our lives are filled with them.  Should I accept this job, or wait to see if I get a call back on the one I really want?  Should I go out with him, but what if it doesn't work out?  Should I go to college, or go to work or both?  Some people are immune to the paralyzing grip of fear that accompanies the requirement of making a decision, but if your like most...it's the fear that we will make the wrong decision that holds us in the place we find our young lady in here on the left.  She is literally at a cross road (the one across her heart) sitting with her two choices but refusing to move in any direction.  She is being held captive by her own inability to decide and she refuses to see it to boot!  So here she sits and with every passing moment, she and her situation become more and more stagnant.  Sound familiar?  We've all been there at one time or another and I'm sure you'd agree...it's no fun.  Lack of movement in life, usually equals lack of life.  So what can we do?  Get over it already!  If we make a choice and then later find out it may not have been the right one...so what!  Just change it.  If the job doesn't work out...look for a new one.  If you should have gone to college full time, then fix it...if he wasn't the guy for you...break up!  Yes, it's that simple.  Sure, the fix doesn't happen overnight but it's not the end of the world.  You can always chalk it up to process of elimination.  Just remind yourself that you want to be absolutely sure of what you do want...so much so, that you're willing to make your way through all that you don't want to end up with the perfect end result.  And what better way to find out than to weed through the options.  And if neither choice suits you, put both those swords down, walk away and look for a third option.  Yes...it is that simple.  We don't get this time back so why waste it?  Move forward...charge ahead...go ahead, make a mistake and you'll be a wiser person for it.

Remember:  Challenges and obstacles can be viewed in one of two ways...as pebbles or boulders...you decide!
