Being a fairly decisive person I wondered why I was having so much trouble deciding if I was going to hang out by the lake and write something?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It seemed like a simple decision &#8211; either I am going to do it or not?  Is there something more pressing &#8211; something more important that I needed to do instead?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s it, right?  Yet I went back and forth on it as I walked.  Neither decision felt &#8220;right.&#8221;  One of them has to be right, or at least one of them has to &#8220;more right.&#8221;  Right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem wasn&#8217;t that one of the options didn&#8217;t feel more correct, it was something else.  Perhaps the root of indecision for that moment, and maybe for moments in your life, was the something else&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re experiencing indecision on something its probably caused by one of five things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Not enough information.<\/li><li>Two (or more) items are in conflict.<\/li><li>Two or more items are of equal value to you.  Time, energy and resources assessment fixes that<\/li><li>Not being honest with yourself &#8211; you feel obligated to do one, but really want to do the other<\/li><li>Good\/better best<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>PS &#8211; This podcast was also produced as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCMe7YSLimP6-PMdrKvKxCtA\">youtube video<\/a>.
