Why is deciding so hard?

Man oh man. Let me tell you, deciding on things can be a real pain in the neck sometimes. There is always a “better” way or a “better” option, or at least we think there is. Sometimes this pursuit for "betterness" causes us to give up entirely.

So why is deciding so hard? Well, there may be lots of reasons: commitment, fear, doubt, to name a few. But the real culprit is perfection. We want perfection now, or nothing at all. We fail to realize that perfection is a process.

“To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often” – Winston Churchill

Here’s my advice: Don’t make perfection your goal, make perfecting your habit, and so free yourself from that nagging need to get things “just right”.
