Have you ever made a decision that has somehow cost you something precious in life? Did you take a job because it paid you more than your previous job only to regret it everyday because it has taken away your peace of mind? Did you leave a partner because they did not change this one habit that pissed you off, only to date or marry someone else whose mere existence causes you to question your own existence?
Life gives us multiple choices to the many questions we have. There is no one answer to your question, however, few out of the many answers may be close to what you need. Unfortunately, some of us may not be aware of the question which means we are not qualified to pick an answer. What I am saying here is that if you do not know yourself well enough, then you won’t know what you need. Take relationships for example, if you don’t know who you are, what you need, and what you don’t need in a person, then you are less likely to make the right decision while choosing a partner. Anyone with a beautiful smile might look like a perfect match for you, only to find out they have a habit or habits that drive you crazy and even lead to abuse.
You can’t get the best if you don’t know yourself. The good thing is, it’s never too late. Observe yourself as you interact with others, listen to what people say about you, observe yourself at the many jobs you’ve had, the work culture and environment that worked for you. Why or what did you like about job A compared to job B? Read about personality types and traits, attachment styles, your love language and so on and so forth. Get to know yourself so that you can allow yourself to make the right decision when the right time and opportunity presents itself. Don’t rush in making a decision, nor should you make a decision out of fear.
