Did I make the right decision?

I always have difficulty in making decision when i think too much... why can't things be simpler? Must we think more as we grow?

My dad had went to a seminar about "Blue Ocean Strategy" on my food poisoning day and come back excitedly telling about the business's potential. He even make deposit to reserve a franchise license on the spot, but can be refund within 7 days. However, the business is desired to run by me as he wants to retire soon...

Daily follow up asking me have I read the info? Any more questions? What do you think? Are you interested? I was so "ham ham" for the whole week as it really bothers me to make the decision. Am I capable in sales and marketing? I am only a website developer over the years... but I have make up my mind to change as the future prospect does not excite me. What is better that I can do to make me happier is the big question. I have this question since 1 year ago, it drives me to take a strengsfinder test, the result of my Top 5 strengths are Responsibility, Relator, Analytical, Harmony & Maximizer. It doesn't seems to tell me what is most suitable for me to do... thus I still continue doing my comfortable old job for another year... until now I finally have ample time to decide whats the next thing to do in my life... my mum and dad already start nagging me to get a job :(

Wanting to be a freelance programmer, but income is not stable and I am not a hard core programmer, probably I can't sustain long but it could be a good start. Learning about investment for the past 2 months, it could be a side income if is a right buy ;) I like online trading but it is always a headache on whats the best thing to trade and where can I get the lowest cost stuff.

Last friday I attended Easy pha-max economic forum, I still undecided at the end of the session. When undecided, words from the ears are dominant and finally I am in the biz. Hope it is the right decision, indeed I have to make it a right decision. Even if it doesn't work out after putting in effort, it is still good for me to find out I am not suitable in this field.

Darling, human are born to think as we are given the brain for it. Think deeply or rather to be said think too much, mostly happens when there's uncertainty.

When this happens, why don't you just feel your heart, and follow your heart, or maybe instinct? You'll never know how it works. You could call off anytime if you feel it's not right.

Good luck :)

Hi..

I think everyone old enough would have gone through the current stage in your life. What I can say about it is not so much as what you are good at, but 'what do you want in life'. Make that a priority, then align activity to follow up on this priority you have set for yourself.

Human is a very funny creature. We are extremely adaptable. You might look at someone else doing something and you can swear you will NEVER do that because it is just NOT you. But if you are forced to do it, you will be comfortable with it after a while.

Since our emotion is just so unstable or forever changing, we may never really reach anywhere following our emotion. So.. why not follow the path of 'what you really want/what is your priority' and force your emotion and action to follow through. At the end of it, you will be proud to say that 'I have achieved what I set out to do' and I am confident to set another goal to achieve, not by emotion.

hope this helps :) have a nice day.
