Decisions - What to Choose

How to decide...

> Talk about it with friends/family?

> Talk about it with the dog (or a friend's dog laugh )?

> Think it through on my own.

> Just put the car in gear and go!

Hi Cmiyer! hug

What comes next in life? That is the question... There have been times when I didn't think about this... too busy... tied down and committed to a time and place... but ties are looser now... so what/where comes next? dunno

Change is good... sometimes... hole
Twazzle <<< what a terrific name! cool

No worries << that's smart.

"I would think it through on my own" ... I tend to do this too. thumbs up

I'm always interested in what other people do. I've known some who seem to talk through all of their choices with other people... what are they seeking? ... perhaps advice, perhaps approval ?? ... I'm not sure.

I find it difficult to explain something well enough... with someone patient enough to listen... but getting their opinion is good... and having to turn my thoughts into words also helps.
Hi richard,,i can relate to where youre coming from actually,im slowly but surely reaching a similar script in my life...often i think we know what course of action we should take but seek approval just to be on the safe side and get that second opinion,nothing wrong with that,its just being cautious...so based on the further info i think i would be sticking the car in gear and going for it.....we only get one pop at life my friend.....Au revoir...professor roll eyes wine cheers conversing crying mumbling
Sit down and eat ice cream.
twazzle ...

"i would be sticking the car in gear and going for it.....we only get one pop at life my friend."

Sound advice. cheers
Thondae! - hug

When the going gets tough... the tough sit down for some ice cream. laugh

I like this... Does a cold brain think more clearly? I may need to test this theory..... tip hat
I will talk to me, myself and I. If me says do it myself and then I think me and myself are absolutely right.laugh handshake
Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Usha! wave

We'll sit down ... me, myself and I ... perhaps me will offer some wine to myself and I ... and we'll get to business ... and I will have a 2nd glass ... okay... help ... perhaps wine is not a good idea ...

Hmm ... sure seemed like a good idea ... like the right people to talk with ... confused

Perhaps we'll try again... in the morning... sleep
Hi Sir Richard, wine is never a bad idea as long as she keeps her mouth shut.!!laugh rolling on the floor laughing Good night!!
Morning Rich!
I could tell you many things to do, but am busy now in Sollenau! laugh
Hmm, never thought about how lovely Frank Sinatra's songs are..smitten
Hi Rich! I'll think it through on my own...whatever it is.confused dunno
So, let me get this straight, you asking how people go about dealing with how to go about things and how you might go about going about things...?

I wonder why you didn't just talk about how your thinking of going about things. Other people listening and responding can bring in new perspectives and inspire your creative process.

That how I go about going about things, anyway. giggle
PS. Sometimes my dogs were invaluable in the creative process. Sometimes just saying things out loud makes stuff concrete and then we can start playing with that idea more realistically.
Hi Richard,

Sounds a little like you are down.confused I know when I get that way occasionally, I start doubting myself. Why....I don't know. I then start trying to think of positive things to do and also go do some physical exercise i.e. biking.

Whatever you decide, God be you!
midlife crisis.

do not worry. it will come and go like a tide.
wave grin

I think when I hv a secrete thing that I cant talk with any friend, I will talk with my mother as my father is very old and deaf, I will tell everything to my mother and listen her advices ...
Hi Jim! beer

Down? Nope... that's not it.

I'm a huge fan of opportunity ... think everyone should have some dancing

Do you know the expression "The world is my oyster"? I don't know where it came from... but it's about having unlimited opportunities. yay

I don't have that... but I see opportunities... and am becoming able to pursue them... and this is good. cool

But... how to look at this? ... talk, think, be careful and cautious, or perhaps impulsive...

What is your approach, when opportunity comes to your door?
Sorry Richard, misunderstood your blog.

When I have lots of opportunities coming my way at the same time, I try and think where I might be the happiest, which one would be the most fulfilling and is a move required? I believe before you choose one, you have to see if they fit into your personal goals!

This is sort of the way I have approached things in my life. I am a very happy person.
Hello, Mr. ajkaorjun wave

Mid-life ... yeah ... crisis? ... hmm ... perhaps not ... perhaps mid-life freedom? ... perhaps it's simply time to live inside a new set of walls ...

There does come a time when we feel like we're stuck... same job, same place, same headaches and same routine. I won't deny that this is some of it.

There also comes a time when we see the world differently ... we realize what builds us up and what tears us down ... and once we know this, it seems wise to make some changes. professor

Have you experienced one of those times? A time when what was right before isn't right anymore?

(No need to answer... but it is a question I ask myself... is this one of those times?)
Hello woodenjc wave

It sounds like you have a special relationship with your mother ... that's wonderful! hug

I have a sister who understands this... to value stability but also to know that change can be smart... not to be reckless and unthinking ... but careful while we think about the direction we are going and the goals we are pursuing.
Jim - We should all be so lucky :)

And we make our own luck, don't we? Find our own happiness...

It sounds like you've figured it out. Awesome.

p.s. I tried to make the blog very neutral... not positive or negative... to ask about the style of fellow bloggers ... how they do their thinking. This is part of the joy of blogging... gaining ideas and wisdom from others cool ... thank you for sharing yours.
With me the only way to do or change anything in my life is to just do it without thinking too much about it. Soon as I start wondering about the right/wrong and good/bad I know I can forget about doing whatever I considered doing. dunno
Hi Richard, love the song..As the song says... I did it my way, only I now know I didnot, I lived alot of my life as I felt it should be lived, by others expectations of me, but now I am trying to live and change things For Me. regardless of what others may think. To answer your Blog ? I think when you ask too many people for their opinion, they can only answer you from their own perspective, psycology, fears, prejudices, so you end up more confused. I think sit, think clearly, sleep on it.... your own inner wisdom is best. Just my personal opinion. teddybear I feel restless in Spirit just now, If I go and leave certain things I will regret it, if I stay,I will regret that i never took the leap of faith... thats the conundrum.
Whenever I had been hearing this song in the past I would always be thinking to admire a person doing things his way and swimming against the stream. super blues wave
