Hello dear friends in this opportunity I want to participate in this week's #Kiss initiative.
When a person makes a decision this can affect positively or negatively in a person's life. We all agree that we have to think things through very well in order not to make a mistake, since it is nothing more and nothing less than our life. But many times it is exhausting to watch a person who has in front of him the answer to a decision and does not make it.
A few days ago I was talking to a friend who felt very exhausted, she has a full time job and although she is a professional and studied accounting, her salary is not enough to support herself and her son, in the afternoon when she leaves her job she sells cleaning and personal hygiene products at home. With the money she earns from these products she can support her family and treat herself. This is only by opening her business in the afternoon after she gets home from work.

Many will be thinking what I always think when I listen to her, why doesn't she quit and dedicate herself to her business at home? The reason is that she has not finished making the decision, because maybe at some point the thing with the companies will be fixed and so her economy will improve. So 7 years have passed and she is still working at her job, which only pays for her tickets.
Why is it so difficult to make such a decision when it seems so clear to everyone what she should do? Making decisions should be simpler, you shouldn't have to make a fuss to decide to quit something that doesn't really add anything to your life. I have thought that if she resigns she could spend more time with her son while at the same time working from home. But you can't make decisions for others or impose yourself as it is your life and your future that is in your hands.

There was a moment in my life where they made me make a big decision, in a surgical intervention that was performed once in an emergency, the anesthesia did not work, it was horrible and the pain caused me to have a respiratory arrest, fortunately I survived after they resuscitated me. During my pregnancy everything was planned for a delivery because of the anesthesia, however when the baby's heartbeat started to drop they made me decide between surgery or the risk of my baby dying. Of course I chose the first option, for a mother the first thing is her child, even if she puts her life at risk. Almost two years later I know that I made the best decision.
Surely in some situations I also find myself thinking a lot, slow to make a decision because the human being when he is from another angle clearly observes what to do, but when it is oneself does not see clearly even if the best option is pointed out to us with an arrow. What is true is that making decisions should be easier, it is one option or the other, sometimes it is worth the risk but sometimes it is not worth it, but how to know which is the best option? I have the answer to that, life will be in charge of showing if you chose right or wrong, we will become wiser whatever we decide because we will learn from the triumphs and also from the defeats.

There is a big problem if we do not choose any option, we will not learn neither from our achievements nor from our defeats, life will not have many colors, it is as if we were living every day the same day. So the suggestion I can give is that we should not complicate a decision more than it should be, beauty is in the simple. And you, what are you waiting for to decide to fulfill your dreams?
Thank you very much for reading me, I will be attentive to your comments.
