Is it a good decision? Bad decision?

Paralysis by over analysis leads to no decision which in itself is a decision.

The decision one makes by making no decision is “more of the same.”

If nothing changes, nothing changes.

I cannot predict the future.

I have many decisions that have quickly led to some degree of regret, but the reality of it all is the thing that I feel leads to my ruin is just the sound of success kicking down the door.

What I think is a blessing in the short term may be the beginning of my long term ruin.

As I look back on my life, noticing how successes turn into failures and vice versa, I am grateful that I didn’t get everything that I wanted. I look for measures of gratitude in the present moment because the present moment is all that exists within reality.

All I am now is the culmination of all the decisions I have made in the past. If I can find gratitude right here and right now, then I am grateful for the path of decisions that led me here.

When I discovered gratitude in the present moment, regret from decisions previously labeled “bad” diminished, for those decisions led me to here.

Decisions are what move us forward down the path of life. Problems are the spice that makes it all interesting.

The greatest treasures are the troves of gratitude that I have found in the connections I have made with others on that path.

God bless you all, I love you, and thank you for reading.
