Decision....





Don't you ever wonder maybe if you took a left turn instead of a right you
could be someone different? What if you had a choice, a choice to go back
and change it all? The question is, would you like to change something, a
teeny tiny part and create a butterfly effect in your life or are you sure
that all your past decisions in life were apt?



Sometimes our decision is at the spur of the moment and sometimes we are
into deep cognitive thinking amongst the choices we have, it can be
rational or irrational, quick or slow, but there is always a solution. Both
decisions either right or wrong would leave an imprint in our life in some
way or the other and future would tell us, if we were right or not and then
it becomes a lesson. Enjoying the falling down and getting up?





I just feel that we decide, we act, make mistakes, learn and grow. That is
how it works, right? According to this, we should have lesser confusion in
life as we grow and more clarity of thoughts. Is the no confusion magic
happening…?





Decision making is a continuous process; we all have taken a lot of big and
small decisions in the past and will keep on doing the same in the future
as well. I don’t want to go into the science of it now, all I wish to put
is, no matter what we decided in the past, and no matter what impact it has
on us, it shouldn’t effect us in any negative way “NOW”, as we cant change
it so lets not think about it.


The question still exists, what if we could change a decision, a small yet
huge decision..would you...?

I have clear thought about past decisions/choices.

See, there is no perfect and sure decision in your past.

Every decision has its own cons and prons. So I believe, that, there is no point in worrying abt them, But my focus should be upon to correct those bad choices and to learn from them. One should revisit their past situations, and think upon how to correct them smartly.

Life is very small, to regret upon past.

learn to Live happily nn king size, and remember that, with every choice - "everything happens for betterment provided you dont harm humanity with your choices :)

We are continuously making choices, whether we flounder and drift towards one direction or we consciously make a choice to live a certain life. Possibilities are abundant which make it harder for us to choose.

For me, it’s mainly about habit and loss. Even if the tough decision will ultimately make me feel good, there is always a loss involved for me. Just one decision can lead to chain of events that can forever change your life.

Well...nobody can boast of a perfect life where he/she has made every decision to his/her liking...i don't say right or wrong because that's again relative...

But then there are these 'it-could-have -been-better' phases that come in everybody's life. :)

@ Nihit:Learning from experiences is what we do/ should do.

@ Bhavi:Loss is alwz invovled...in finance we call it "opportunity cost" and i suppose it works everywhere else as well :)

@Rohan:If a person is always satisfied with what he has or had, he does not even dream of attaining the things which he has missed...and then there remains no potential reason of living when one doesnt want anything..!
So yes, i feel, "it could have been better", once in a while, is what keeps you going.
