Default The challenge to choose

Sometimes I just think I have too many choices.

Maybe some of you have noticed that as well : When you get to believe in subjective reality and understand the LoA, it's like, we get in total control of our life, we take responsibility for it. Basically, whatever we want to do or to have, we can do it, with enough time and commitment.

This is absolutely great.

Nevertheless, there is a new challenge that comes just after realising that, the challenge to choose what we want, to choose the experiences we want to have.
Reality becomes a matter of choice.

I am at a point in my life where I have many options. I can take several directions right now, and all of them seems great. I do have a long term goal but there seems to have many different ways to get to it.
I have difficulty to choose which way to take.

Does it sound familiar to some of you ? How do you choose what you are going to do next ?

Default Choice

Hi,

i sit down with each possible choice on a peice of paper in front of me and 'feel' wjich one makes me the happiest. Then I decide to go that way and relax. If I get feedback fairley soon that it will not work out for the best I revisit the other choices if not, it is full steam ahead.

Allowing yourself to intuivily 'feel' possible outcomes is invaluable, to me anyway,

dave

thanks for the advice Dave. I do try to follow as much as I can my feelings and emotions in making choices, however I sometimes get stuck between two choices.
It could be cool to have lots of clarity about one's desires right away, but I guess it's good to just pick a choice and go for it and see how the feedback is.

If all options you have are equally "good", there's another way to make sure you pick the "right" option:
Determine a long-term goal (what do you want to accomplish in 2, 3, 5, 10 years?).
Then compare all options you have and ask yourself which option brings you closer to that goal.
