Making choices is exhausting.

No matter what you choose, you will suffer the consequences of the regret of the unexplored path.

Struggling to make a decision is mentally draining, and stretching it is a choice in itself.

We try to make the best decision for the best outcome and reduce regret, still, decisions are painful. When both choices are hard, it is important to minimise the decision time to reduce the stress that comes with procrastination choice.

Stressing about making a decision and fantasising about the possible outcomes is delusion. It makes things worse and clouds the judgment by which you must confront the situation at hand.

I am guilty of this, I am now assessing 3 different outcomes that will impact my life for the next 6 months.

Because I have been postponing, the stress is growing and it feels worse than it seems.

If I had made a choice and stuck to it, it might not have been the best but by now I would have learned how to deal with it. The stress about making the decision (the only stress I’m feeling) would disappear.

Sometimes stressing about a decision is worse than the decision itself.
