You keep cycling around this same decision. To ____ or not.

There are strong pros on both sides. And the only real con of each is having to give up the pros of the other.

There’s no “right” answer, but it’s a big decision, so you’re deliberating like there is.

But the truth is, YOU just get to make this call. For yourself, by yourself. What do you want?

I know, it’s as debilitating as it is liberating.

So what keeps us stuck? And how do we make the decision?

There are lots of useful frameworks and models, but here’s the mindset work needed to make any of them effective:

  1. Get clear on your vision, values, and strengths.

    These are the factors to lean on for good decision-making. The more specific you are about what you ultimately want—and what drives you—the easier it is to see which paths gets you there.

  2. Address your fears.

    We deliberate to procrastinate, and we procrastinate to avoid something. What is your indecision keeping you from having to face?

  3. Accept your real options.

    We get stuck circling impossibilities. “If only X were true, then I’d definitely do Y” What’s your actual reality right now? Which options are not really options because they depend on someone else changing? Which options fundamentally conflict with your values? Let go of those.

Which of these do you recognize—needing clarity, taming fear, or letting go?

If you’re stuck in indecision, let’s talk. I can help you get aligned, face your fears, and see where your real choice lies.
