decision making

sweepthelegdidsbury [Edit] [Delete] 13 replies 11:29, 27 March '08

does anyone else feel like they've floated through life without ever actually proactively making a decision??
i do, it's very annoying. my life isn't too bad at all but i can't shake the feeling that i have no control over it.
maybe i need to start actually thinking about things.

    I make decisions all the time. Other people make me make theirs too.

      • how big are these decisions?

        like what clothes to wear?
        or
        what career to choose?

  • Totally

    I'm completely indecisive - I walked in and out of Asda three times yesterday because I couldn't decide if I wanted a microwave lasagne for lunch. IThe only area in which I do seem to be decisive about is wasting money on impulse purchases, which I can always convince myself are a good idea.

  • I don't feel that

    but I have noticed that if I want something to happen in life I generally spend ages trying to make it happen without success. And then said thing happens anyway in a manner entirely unrelated to any action on my part.

  • Just don't think too much.

    I think the only big decision I've had to make recently is whether to move across the country and start a new job where I didn't really know anyone.

  • Nope

    I spent 8 years as a football referee. I made decisions alright. Many may have been wrong, but decisions they were.

    But in real life I tend to bumble along with the flow.

    • yeah

      i don't really even mean making the right decision. just making a choice of any kind and going through with it.
