Listen now
Description
In this podcast episode, I share personal anecdotes, from facing the pressure of a citizenship exam deadline to reuniting with family from France after years apart, and receiving a tempting job offer. I delve into the internal conflict of choosing between working for a developer, another employer, or focusing on my existing entrepreneurial pursuit. Through my reflections, I emphasize the significance of living in the moment, upholding integrity, and instilling cherished values in my children. With a fervor for bold decision-making, I explore various facets of choice and aspire to motivate you to pursue your own bold endeavors. Here are a few tactics about making decisions:   1. Seek Clarity: When making decisions, it's important to see things clearly and understand the options available to you. This can involve gathering information, seeking advice, or reflecting on your own values and goals. 2. Seek guidance through prayer and reflection: Surrendering in prayer leads to inner peace, an essential precursor to making decisions. Decision-making becomes even more so challenging without peace. Additionally, consulting trusted individuals for advice can offer a fresh perspective on a situation. 3. Trust Your Intuition: This is your life and ultimately you bear the ultimate responsibility for it! Sometimes, decision-making can be difficult to make because they require you to trust yourself. Pay attention to your instincts and listen to what it is you really want. 3. Consider Long-Term Impact: It's important to think about the long-term consequences of your decisions. Will this choice align with your values and bring you closer to your goals? Take the time to consider the potential outcomes of each option. 4. Embrace Uncertainty: Making decisions can be scary, especially when there is no clear answer. Embrace the uncertainty and be willing to take risks. Remember that growth often comes from stepping outside of your comfort zone. I hope these tactics help you with your decision-making process!
