The things we do for…
I’ve been digging around to find a solution for a couple of problems that I have. This past few days were dedicated to doing just that. But what I found was that the decisions were not always the one’s I wanted but instead the ones I had to cope with. What to do in situations like this?
Well, I found we have these options when we decide something:
- Do what others want
- Do what you want / need
This is nice and all but in most cases these decisions take many variables and we have to analyse them one by one and cross reference between them in order to have the ‘perfect’ decision right? Well, yes and no. The top most variable you have to take into account which matters is if that is what you want and need at that specific time. I know sometimes that might not seem that simple but if you think again, that’s the only thing that matters.
My brother once said something that I will never forget. We were talking about achieving goals and I was saying that sometimes life gives us obstacles impossible to overcome and he said that if we put our minds into it we could. Not because it will magically happen, we all know that’s impossible, but because we direct our lives to overcome these obstacles and get exactly what we want. We might not get exactly that but we WILL, for sure, see that the ‘impossible’ sometimes isn’t that ‘impossible’.
My advice is for you to think for yourselves. Take into account what others might say, that’s a very important factor in decision making but do not let that be the top most reason for the decision you’re making.
