When you are in the midst of the “fork in the road,” which path do you take when you are faced with difficult decisions to make regarding your life’s situations? Do you take the superficial path, the road that allows you to sweep your feelings and emotions under the carpet, or do you take the path or road that allows you to experience trials and tribulations that you learn from?
With that said, in questioning which path or road is right or which path or road is wrong, how do you decipher, make sense of, or know the difference between both paths. Could there be some validity in both paths that may satisfy your thirst or hunger for some need or desire? The choice is yours to make. Will it be a choice that reflects an outcome that benefits you in the long run or a choice that paralyzes you to stay stuck in a place where there is no movement forward to a healing process? You become paralyzed when you choose the path based on anxiety and fear.
At some point in time we all struggle with making decisions. Are you stuck or struggling in trying to make the appropriate decision about something? Does that decision involve something you have to give up or forfeit to reach a desired goal or positive healthy outcome? What decisions are you struggling with?
The choices become most difficult when both paths and roads feed our desires; taking one over the other means we have to give up something, as mentioned earlier. Which one will you give up, let go of? A mental health therapist can help guide you in the appropriate direction to let go of your fears or anxious behaviors that sabotage a healthy outcome in making decisions.
