Locking it in?
I am not sure whether to do this or that.
What do you think?
Okay.
Let me ask someone else also.
What do you think?
And so on it goes…
Pick up any decision or action; add a bit of ambiguity and morality to it, and then you have this infinite loop of discussion, deliberation, worrying, more discussion, and so on.
We think that it is only the big decisions that matter: Should I change my job? Should I join this MBA program? Should I marry this person?
Yes, these decisions can have a significant impact on your life.
But there are decisions that are small, albeit more important: Did you workout/meditate today? Did you do your writing/painting/singing for today? Were you a professional or an amateur today?
If we start moving forward on these small minor, insignificant in their own way, they change our identify, our beliefs, our way of looking at life.
And this also helps us in tackling the big decisions in a more meaningful, confident way.
