Often we believe we know what we want in life. We accept some choices we’ve been given, options to be selected from, and an array of things to juggle around before getting to a decisive point. This leaves us lazy mentally. We think about them only when we get there.

These mixed things spring up either in our relationship life, career life, family life, or personal life, where we’re left utterly perplexed on what way to go, what option to leave behind.

Sometimes it gets a little crazier when we spend almost all or equal amount of our time and energy deciphering simple life choices like the phone to get, color to pick from, hairstyle to wear, etc.

It all sounds a bit flimsy, until you’re hit with a standstill decision-making situation. The kind that leaves your brain no room to process things systematically. The one that makes your mind clogged and makes your body jitter with your teeth clenched. All in the bid to downsize the “eenie meenie mynie moe” drastically to just one final answer.

Then what does that make you do? Ask for options (again), play around with the given options (again), scoff over the mixed-signal like an above-average intelligent bloke that you are?

Or would you stare death in the face and reject it with one final answer.

Navigate a dire situation with one final decision.

Uproot the toxicity from your path with one final attitude.

Start now to practice asking yourself questions that may require just one right final answer to live on, scale through, manage or deal with, and in extreme cases evade a loss — in many ways possible.

Because what is it going to be? To sit and watch as forceful events unfold elasticizing our minds too drastically or be prepared for when a situation may come when we need to provide just one final answer.

Think about questions like:

If you were held at gunpoint and asked to choose between two very important things what would your final answer be?

If you were asked to choose between two mutually exclusive or opposing forces not knowing which might lead to the end of your life, what would your final answer be?

If you were given the last card to make one wish to come through, what would you use it on?

Or if you were told to make just one declaration you want to come to pass, what would your final answer be?

Think about stuff like this now.
