Young children are exposed to making simple choices in their daily lives, such as

choosing which candy or lollipop to buy or which toy to buy in a toy store where we are given
the option of buying every toy. I always go with my heart while making decisions. They claim
that no matter what happens as a result of your decisions, when you make decisions from the
heart, you will have the most satisfaction. I always do what my heart truly wants, but as I
become older, I find that I look at other possibilities to ensure that my decision would have more
positive impacts than negative ones. I am proud of myself as I try to weigh the options first
before coming up with the final decision.
College life was a real emotional rollercoaster. Problems like choosing a school to attend
or a career to pursue became a daily struggle for me. Since it truly seemed like a ticking time
bomb, I need to identify which is which in order to be able to save myself. The pressure I felt
from myself, my family, and everyone else in my life produced a huge anxiety monster that
follows me everywhere. Some of the questions I kept asking myself were whether I should
pursue this because it is my goal or move forward with this other alternative because it will be
better for me in the long run. I constantly worry because I know that whatever I decide will have
an impact on my future, particularly the job path I will take.
One of the most significant choices you will make in life is your career. Much more is
involved than simply determining what you will do for a living. Consider how much time we
spend at work to begin with. Approximately 71% of the year is spent at work and if we are not
happy with the path that we have chosen, it will take a toll with our health. We will burnout
because we don’t love what we are doing anymore. We will become toxic to all people around
us. I am hoping that whatever I have chosen is, it will be opposite of what my questions today
are.
Every decision we make in life affects our future, so if we choose something now that we
later regret, we are being unjust to ourselves. You are denying the future person what they
deserve. I was uneasy with the choices I was making when I thought about this subject. Am I
acting rashly? Am I being pretentious with the decisions I made regarding how to stand?
Sincerely, I don't know. I am interested in seeing how these decisions will affect my future. I'm
not sure if all the chances I deliberately choose to take with my life will be worthwhile in the long
run. I'm not sure if I'm helping or hurting myself, but who knows what the future may hold. I just
want to express my sincere gratitude for the ability to follow the path I do now. I am powerful
because I was able to stand up to the repercussions of my decisions.
