Big Decisions

Spend more time making the big decisions.

  • Where you live: The city or place you choose to live in shapes your opportunities, experiences, and lifestyle. Yet, we often don’t spend enough time deciding where to settle.

  • Who you’re with: Relationships have a lasting impact on your happiness and well-being. Still, we frequently rush into them without careful thought.

  • What you do: Your career is a major part of your life, but we spend very little time deciding which job or field to pursue despite the time we invest in it.

Reflection: In what ways have your choices impacted your personal growth and fulfilment?

Avoid them. Life is too valuable to waste on unnecessary tension. Surround yourself with those who support growth, not those who bring negativity. What do you contribute to your relationships?

Want to be fluent in a language? Practice it consistently. So how do you overcome the doing deficit?      1. Start small: Set a daily goal that’s easy to commit to.      2. Focus on the process: Don’t worry about immediate results; they will come with time.      3. Track your progress: Even if daily improvements seem small, tracking them over time shows how much you’ve grown.      4. Embrace discomfort: Mistakes are part of the proces...
