“So. Tell me. What do you think? Which is better? To take action and perhaps make a fatal mistake - or to take no action and die slowly anyway?”

― Ahdaf Soueif, The Map of Love





Ask any millennial, How is it like when one is stuck with a dilemma and struggling to choose? Most of them will say, it's scary, triggers anxiety, nervousness and even induce sleeplessness !


In our everyday lives we are faced with various decision making events be it be in our career, academics, family, relationships, etc. Some are critical and even life altering, in one way every decision we take affects our life minutely or majorly.We all somewhere fear making decisions. Primary reason being what if, the one we choose turns out to be a fatal mistake and ruins our life ?


We run our lives around all these what if 's and sometimes avoid taking that leap of faith which might have been good for us in the long run.


Haemin Sunim in his book ( The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down) gives a beautiful response to the dilemmas faced by anyone one of us. He says," When


you have to make an important decision don't loose sleep over it, Just take the special medicine called 'time' and wait for it.Your sub consciousness will itself search for the answer without you realizing it."


Just like in our lives we have person(s) to seek help to over our dilemma, the sub consciousness comes to aid our consciousness.
