Overdue Decisions

.
There are times in our lives that we are pushed to finally decide...
Many a time these are decisions that have been a long time coming. Decisions of which friends and family may take a sigh of relief that they are finally made. Yet, what has been so obvious for those looking at the situation from the outside ~ never was quite that obvious being in the middle of it all...

And consequently there was always an excuse not to decide:

“I don’t like my job anymore, but at least I got a job.”
“It is a ‘dead-end-job’, but I can get by on the salary.”
“I have to put in way more hours than I would like to, but the money is good.”

Just to mention a few...

Often the decisions that we tend to be unwilling or unable to make come in any of three area’s in our lives: jobs, homes, and relationships.
And while our excuses can be vastly different ~ the result is the same; we find ourselves in a situation we don’t want to be in any longer, and yet we stick it out for way too long...

The reason we have to not make those decisions can be as simple as ‘Let’s not rock the boat’ ~ it seems easier to stay in the environment, the situation that you know and have known for many years; than it is to break free from it and reach out for new adventures.
For many of us it feels better to be in the company of a ‘bad friend’, rather than to be alone...

And bit by bit this may lead to a negative attitude about the situation ~ eventually even a negative attitude about life in general or even ourselves. When we stick it our in a situation that has long since served its purpose in our lives, it is almost certain to become stressful to us. Which means that we are likely to not cope as well with other, different stressful situations as we used to...

At some point this can lead to somewhat subconscious affirmations to de-manifest the thing or situation in your life you have not been happy with. If it is about your living situation ~ your home may disappear from your life (for whatever every-day-life reason). If it is a job you have been having a negative attitude about because you have been hanging on to it for way too long ~ you can suddenly find yourself with way more time on your hands you ever thought possible...

In other words ~ life has this thing about forcing us to make those decisions that have been long overdue. This being the case, we may be better off making the decisions in their proper time ~ and on our terms...
