Life, at times puts you at crossroads. You just can’t decide what to do especially when there are many options open before you, each alluring with its promise of success and happiness. You yourself have many dreams and on top of that other people- those who care and also those who don’t – opine. You are not sure which is correct- yours or the others. Believe me, it is tough.
People opine with respect to their right and wrong, their concept of success and failure, which is always subjective. They won’t know what exactly is good for you. When you decide on something, you take into account what is good for you and what is not.
By making your own decision, you are doing something that you want to and not what others want you to. Then again, making the right decision alone is not everything, what really matters is what you do after deciding. How well you execute your plan afterward. That is what makes something fruitful. Since you are following your dream and want to realize it somehow, you will give your one hundred percent.
At end of it you either regret your decision or feel content. But it was your decision… you wrote your own destiny, which is the most important thing. You did not live someone else’s life! Follow your dream- something which I did not exactly four years back and I regret that now.
This is my opinion. A lesson learnt from a decision I made previously. Life could have been different, had I learnt this earlier… if I had just given it a thought, then.
Does opportunity knock the door for the second time? Hope it will, for one last time.
Good day folks!
The Confused Soul! 
i agree one should take his own decisions. You can seek advice, help or approval which may lead or mislead you but then only you will bear the consequences. In my opinion, one should take help and advice, but shouldn’t wait for other’s approval and in the end your decision should be your’s not someone else’s. Have a look at my blog also, I’ve written about the same thing. http://yamini73.wordpress.com/category/life/
