Here’s how my decision making process is going: pray/think about it incessantly; finally make decision; follow through on decision; horrified that I can’t tell if it was the right one or not; anxiously think about trying to make another decision to correct the first one.
Is this how other people do things?!
Yep…sounds pretty much like my approach! It’s exhausting…
Yeah…I do this. Not as much as I used to, though. I think for years I thought that I could make a wrong decision that would seriously eff up my life. Like I could potentially pick the thing that would throw off God’s entire plan for my entire life. I don’t believe that is true anymore. So that eases my anxiety a little about decisions. BUT I still really want to know every facet of every possible outcome to make sure I make a wise decision, which is very controlling of me. And pretty much means I don’t want to have to trust God at all. Yep.
