What If I Make the Wrong Decision?

What if I make a wrong decision, seems to be a universal question that we all have asked ourselves from time to time. This question often comes up when we have a tough decision to make and either decision we make has consequences which we perceive to be somewhat balanced, however we feel that there is truly a right decision and a wrong decision and we fear choosing the wrong decision. Why do we have this fear of making a wrong decision? Simple really, if we make what we perceive to be a bad decision, then we own that decision, it’s our responsibility, we may have to admit that we made a mistake, we may feel that our reputation will be tarnished, etc. So instead of making a bad or wrong decision we play mental tennis with our decisions, bouncing back and forth on which decision is the best one to make. This type of stalling usually causes a great deal of stress, which has an impact on our mental and physical health and may even cause more angst in our life because delaying some decisions can create bigger issues.

The key to making decisions is to make one. Make your decision based on gathered facts and projected outcome and most of all based on what your true inner voice tells you. You know your gut feeling, your intuition. The key is to be able to discern gut feeling from ego. Our ego often tells us to go against what we intuitively know is right. When making a decision always go with your gut feelings and know that even if your decision at first turns out to be the wrong one, trust in the Universe that there are no accidents and that there is a purpose for the decision which you chose to make.

The bottom line is, if you listen to your inner voice and you trust in yourself, then you know that you can’t make a wrong decision. Your decision will always be right, even if at first it does not seem to be.
