The State Of Indecision

Setting a date to do This Thing.

It’s a decision that helps, because it removes all the That Things out of the equation. Millions of them.

Maybe you don’t struggle with decision making. I’m afraid I do. So much freedom (Hallelujah!) So many choices (Likewise!). But boy, oh boy. How do I use that freedom and those choices wisely? It’s a frequent dilemma.

And the truth is it’s never got any easier for me.

So I go on hunches, inclinations and a capacity to stick a pin on the calendar:

“OK, on Friday 16th December, we’ll have an open mic style Homesong at our house, for any local performers to come and play”.

There. That has ruled out millions of possibilities and choices, and obliterated The State Of Indecision off the face of the map. Such a relief.

ps. I did check with my wife first btw. I’m not THAT free.
