Bad Decisions
"The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing." -John Powell Decisions, decisions, decisions. We make them every day. Some are good, some are bad and sometimes we make no decision, which is a decision in itself. You've heard me say it 100 times, "All of our choices come with consequences, so choose wisely." Sometimes the consequences are minor and sometimes the consequences are big, really big and then we have to live with them. But, the reality is there really is no "bad" decision because of the simple fact that we learn from our mistakes. (Hopefully!) Believe me I have made my share of bad decisions, some of which I am still living with the consequences of today. When you live with the consequences of bad decisions in a way that they eat you alive, consume your thoughts, or you let them ruin your life, that's called, regret. And, if you don't know it yet, regrets are a waste of time. You expend your energy walking down a dark, depressing path when at any time you can turn the corner into the light and warmth of Forgiveness Alley. It's up to you which road you take once you've made a bad decision. Dwelling on it, incessantly thinking about it, crying over it, whining about it and wishing it hadn't happened aren't going to do a single thing to change what happened, so why go through the drama? You can turn a bad decision into an albatross by not letting it go and allowing it to tear you apart, which by the way is an even worse decision. So when you find that you have made a bad decision, which we all do, chalk it up to another of life's lessons and get about the business of learning from it, and then let it go and move on. We all know sh*t happens. But it's our choice (decision, get it?) how we will choose to perceive it, how we choose to deal with it. At any moment you can change your mind and take the high road. You can tell yourself that even though whatever happened, happened, you ARE NOT going to let it ruin your day, not to mention ruin your life. There's no question that bad decisions can change the course of your life but just because you hit a bump in the road or for some a crater, doesn't mean that you can't move on and still have a great life. It's your decision! So go out and celebrate that you are through another bad decision and it's behind you. Brush off the dirt of Regret Alley and move out onto the Highway of Life. There are ups and downs and curves in the road but its part of the journey. You'll never get to where you want to be when you keep looking in the rear view mirror. We all have to travel the road anyway so sit back and enjoy the ride.
