Being confident in your choices (It's okay to be wrong about things)
Every choice I have made in the past 4-5 years has been great overall. Now, what do I mean by that? I think as an individual, one has to understand one's thoughts, take responsibility, and make decisions even if they sound bad.
Decisions that I have made (From my perspective):
- Choosing Computer Science (Since I already know how to use the internet/computers and Google a lot) ✅
- Picking the Guitar as a Musical Instrument ✅
- Building a Reading Habit ✅ (Check out my previous post)
- Teaching Habit ✅
- Tried a lot ✅
- Find a career where I could experiment with my creative and logical side ✅
- Did a little bit of everything ✅
- Being involved in communities ✅
Now, thinking back, these small decisions helped a lot. If I might say. I met many amazing folks throughout my academics and travels. And every interaction made me a little better.
Now, coming to the reality
Most of the time I suck! at things! - I don't know about basic things like how to have small talk without talking about myself. I still have that problem lol - Even though I still ramble a lot about things - Usually it revolves around ending up talking about myself. Folks don't say or point out anything about this. But I have this intuition like - Yeah! Yes! I'm drifting away from the main conversation.
When I'm thinking about this, I find myself at a point where I don't know where I'm going with this, or I don't know what will do now. At first, it's interesting to do all things at a time. Feeling that everything is fine - but it's not at all fine.
Now, this is not a burnout post or feeling down post or anything like that. I'm just trying to make a point here.
And the point is to be confident about making any decisions. Building habits, a system of your own. If you don't trust yourself, your decisions, or your choices. How can you bridge trust/communicate/bond with other folks?
Now I'm ending this post right here. I'm not going to tell you the magical way to trust your instincts. Because there isn't one. It's you and your thoughts, your actions, and your intuitions.
