The thing about making a decision is that one’s you made the decision you can get on with all the things that come after the decision. Up to that point, everything is pliable which means everything else is on hold.

Waiting, waiting, waiting for the moment when the one big thing is nailed down. Waiting, waiting, waiting until we know whether we’re heading to the west country or the north country.

After the decision, if it’s west, we’ll go via here and here which means we should think about this and this and this.

If it’s north, other options are in play, now we’re looking at these stopping off points and the potential of a side trip over here.

Just like life. Choosing to go to one destination means not choosing others, and opens up a new world on the way.

Skippy strategy: Make a decision and get on the path.
