On today's Thursday Thoughts, Polly and I are talking about making decisions.
There is nothing worse than the pain of indecision. You go back and forth, driving yourself crazy by not deciding. And the truth is that you're never going to know if you've made the 'right' or 'wrong' decision until you've actually made it.
In this conversation, Polly and I talk about our own experiences of decision making, how making decisions quickly is a skill, and why ultimately, whatever decision we make, we will always learn and grow. Plus, even if we make a so-called wrong decision, nothing is set in stone and we have to power to change things.
As with so many things, fear is often what's holding us back from making a decision; but when we find the courage to move through the fear and take action, we move forward. Whereas indecision only keeps us standing still.
