Indecision

August 19, 2019 by David Bailey

One of the worst spots to be in is that of indecision. I’ve often found myself in that state and it’s one of the most painful positions to be in. The fact is that we’ve almost all heard that the decision to not decide is a decision all in itself. It can be mulling over where to go to dinner or whether or not to get a divorce. I realize that each of those carries a different weight and consequence but often the tension inside us is not that dissimilar.

Indecision is a form of paralysis. If we’re completely honest with ourselves we’ve been in that moment which could be hours, days, weeks or even years. We want to quit our job or career. Possibly move somewhere we feel is calling us or is a place of passion. Not doing it is OK too, but it’s the grey area in between where we haven’t committed to either way. We either need to become happy with where we are, embrace it, and make it the best spot to be in or plan the change. Either way, worrying about it every day is a slow death and does nobody an favors. Pick a path and run!
