Choices
What to do when you don't know what you want, or can't choose.
- What if I choose the wrong career?Why the regret you fear is often bigger than the regret you get, what people regret most, and how to test a career before you commit to it.
- How do I know if I'm on the right path?Why you can rarely know in advance, what research says about how much people still change, and how to test your path in a small way.
- How do you decide when both options are bad?Why a choice between two bad options is so hard to make, what research says about waiting and about choices you can undo, and one way to pick.
- How do I find my passion?Why passion usually grows while you do something, why searching for one hidden passion can backfire, and how to start with a bit of curiosity.
- How do I stop seeking approval from others?Why doing things mainly for approval wears thin, what research on choosing for yourself found, and a small way to begin.
- How do I find out what my values are?How to find out what matters to you: why choosing works better than a list, what a gap in your life tells you, and one small step to take.
- Why can't I make decisions?You get indecisive when something specific is in the way, such as information you are missing or fear of choosing wrong. Research names four kinds of it.
- What should I do with my life?You find out mostly by trying. Start with what matters to you on an ordinary day, narrow it to two options, and test one in a small way.
