Indecision

“Indecision is like the stepchild: if he doesn’t wash his hands, he is called dirty; if he does, he is wasting the water.”

I fear making decisions. I agonize over them. I always think if I wait a little longer, the perfect choice will be made clear to me. I think I can outthink my own damn self. The problem is that the waiting does not resolve the conflict and agonizing doesn’t provide any more answers. Indecision makes you fear every choice, because like that stepchild, you will be to blame. I’m working on accepting the blame and just making a decision. If I chose wrong, so be it. Or maybe if I’m lucky I can make a new choice. I can be like Jay-Z in “Renegade,” when he says “I drove past the fork in the road and went straight!”
