Can any decision be right or wrong?
Can any decision be good or bad?
Can you ever be certain about it while making it?
You take the decision based on your level of understanding at that point in time.
Evaluation of the decision whether it was a good or bad generally happens in the aftermath. When you make an important decision, its unlikely that it has a single effect or consequence. Mind cannot possibly fathom the enormity of the decision. The effects of the decision surface gradually over the time. It slowly reveals itself.
Even your evaluation of the decision, right or wrong is not so precise and concrete. If you look back, you will find at least one decision you made and thought was wrong, is not so wrong after few years. Because mind is not reliable and consistent in its workings. It changes colors with seasons.
Sometimes, the decision is heart driven. You cannot put any logic onto it. Heart doesn’t know why. Mind can give you thousands of reasons why.
In fact, you can not even say “I took the decision from heart”. You cannot take the decision from the heart. Decision happens through you. There is no internal conflict. Even if it doesn’t make any sense and you have plenty opposing reasons not to take it, it is taken. And this happens without an iota of effort on your part. You will have no doubts.
It will be completely divorced of internal struggle. Effortless.
It will be out of intuitive knowing instead of an emotional reaction.
The decision may be wrong on the level of mind but it will be a satisfying one, free of any internal repercussions.
