When things get serious and everything seems a matter of life and death, making the right decisions can feel overwhelming or just incredibly scary. "What if?" we ask ourselves as if there would be only one right answer and finding it would be absolutely necessary.
And yet in most cases, making a decision is not so different from taking a guess, under specific circumstances, while making the most of the information currently available at a specific moment and taking our present mindset and life experience into account.
[Taking a new decision?
It can be like playing a new game]
Even if decisions are not always reversible, it is still possible to change direction and make a new, better decision after an initially poor one, and to adjust to a new trajectory, like you would do while playing chess. So almost no decision is, in the end, that scary in the long-term.
