When do you know if you’ve made the right choice?

I’ll wait while you think about it.

(Patiently waiting and whistling a random tune).

If you said, after you make it, then Congratulaions! We have a winner.

You see, there is no right choice.

There is only an outcome that either does or does not align with what you would like to happen.

The interesting thing about choices is that you’re making them all day long. It’s just that some choices are more important than others, and the irony is that you can’t not make a choice.

One way to navigate the constant stream of choices is to not give them all equal weight. Perhaps you can find a way to automate some of the choices you have, or plan for them in advance.

You can also choose to let some situations just unfold without too much mental investment. This way you can save your mental energy for the bigger, more important choices.

When it comes to important choices you will never have all the information you need so eventually there will come a time when you’ll have to choose to act or not.

Ultimately you have to come to terms with that fact that you and everyone else are making the right choices based on information and perspectives at hand.

You see, you’ll never know if you’ve made the right choice because as of now there is no parallel universe in which you can re-run the identical scenario to see how your other choice would have played out.

Coming to terms with the fact that you made the right choice can be difficult, but then that’s a choice too.
