Om Swami
How do I make the big decisions that shape my life?
Decide as if it were your own way
Ask yourself what decision you would take if you could really do it your way, then walk that path with resolution. Even if things don't pan out as hoped, you will have inner strength to respond gracefully to what life throws at you.
The other way is to ask yourself, "If I could really do it my way, what decision would I take?" And then walk that path with resolution.
