The Decision Is Right If You're Committed
Do not fear mistakes, there are none.
In my perspective this should be a popular opinion: The decision is right if you're committed.
Every time I committed to a decision when it was a hard one to make, I've never regretted it, even if in the future it didn't work out, everything I learned in that time from making the decision up until I realized I needed to pivot helped me when I moved onto the next thing.
I learned mistakes are not really mistakes - They are moments that revealed something true about what worked, what didn’t, and who I actually am when I try. They're valuable data points of information that propelled me in the direction that I needed to go to figure out for myself. Without that information I wouldn't know what is right for me or not, and I couldn’t refine my path to creating and owning the life I want.
What you do for current you affects future you - The only way for future you to be wiser is if current you makes decisions. Good ones or bad ones, but future you will never get wiser if current you doesn't make any moves.
Indecision is prison. It traps you in a loop of imagined outcomes instead of lived ones. You sit still while life waits for you to participate. I would rather just commit and be strong and wrong and later know more information to make the next move, than not make any decision and know nothing.
It’s not failure, it’s actually living.
Field Notes
Grab the reins.
Pivot later if you need too.
Don’t be afraid to be seen trying.
