Sometime I feel that It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are, but it is also true that in spite of knowing your values, you can't take the decisions.
Steven D. Woodhull has mentioned that
You've got a lot of choices. If getting out of bed in the morning is a chore and you're not smiling on a regular basis, try another choice.
But it doesn't mean that you should regret after taking your decision.
Let me take you couple of decade back during my childhood. During that time I had faced a lot of situations where decision was not the easy thing for me.
I remember the time when i used to go to my maternal-grandmother place. This used to happen usually during summer vacations. We used to spent around 1 month at my nani's (maternal grandmother) place.
It's a tradition or very common in Indian families, if your relatives come to your home and when they take off then you must have to give some gift / money to their children.
My Nani used to give me 5 rupees whenever i got the chance to visit their place.
This time I was turned to 10 and when we were taking our leave from their place, my Nani came and said "Tu ab badaa ho gaya hai to paise bhi jayda milne chahiye.." and she gave me 50 Rs .
It was the huge amount for me. Consider if in a single shot if you get 1 million rupees in your pocket what would you think? My situation was much similar to that.
My father always used to give me either 1 rupee or 2 rupee as my pocket money and it used to become very much sufficient for fulfilling my expectations.
But this was not just 1, it was 1x50 = 50 rupee, and it was beyond my expectation.
While returning from their place i was dreaming about the color full toys, kites, mangaa (special thread for flying the kites) , video game and lot many things even which couldn't be fulfilled in 50 Rs.
But i was thinking that am similar to Uncle Scrooge (Cartoon character of Walt Disney) who used to have lot of money.
The master of problems starts only when you have money in your pocket. If you don't have you wouldn't think but if you have, you would definitely start thinking.
And for me problem in terms of decision was knocking the door. I was not aware of it because i was not much matured. I was just 10 year old.
But i was listening the sound of knock not at the door but inside my mind, and the sound was what to do ? what not to do ? what to do ? what not to do ? what to do ? what not to do ?
Whole night i could not sleep properly just because of that 50 rupee that was still there in my pocket.
It is really true that "The impact of money on human at any stage of life is same."
It's take your peace away, disturb your mind set, you even can't think properly.
Morning when i woke up. I put my hand inside my pocket that 50 rupee was still there, I took it out and start watching it. At the age of 10, i was thinking that what the hell is there in this piece of paper which was hitting me from inside whole night.
Suddenly one thing came to my mind. It was not the piece of paper, it was my expectation, my dream, my outlooks, which was hitting me from inside.
This piece of paper was similar to the gas litter which can be a cause of big fire.
I took the advise from my elder brother and elder sister, everybody was giving different-different opinion but i had to decide something, I was not able to come to the conclusion.
Later I decided to give this 50 rupees note to my mother and thought that let her decide what is good for me?
This was even very easy decision for me because i knew my mother would do the best for me therefore i was very much happy with my decision.
But during your childhood you can involve your parents in your decision making, but whey you grow up it's not always the fact that your parent would become a part of your decision making.
You can share your decision tree with your friends, colleagues, you can take their suggestions. but always keep in mind
Listen to everyone but do what your heart says to you..
