What Is IT?

You know you think you know what's going on in your life... but then sometimes you look around and you don't!

I thought I knew what I wanted all my life... which I did most of it... but now I'm standing somewhere in my life... where I thought I wanted something... and now I see things that I want to do other than what my plans had in store for me.

Making a career change doesn't only involve me. That's the only issue. My decision in life are based on a lot of other things as well. The people I love are a very very important part of my decisions! Why is it that everything else affects the decision one has to make. At the end of the day its one person's life and its what they have to do. The decisions one makes should revolve around them and they have to live with their choices...! Why should it affect others...??
There is no point in asking why. At the end of the day, IT DOES affect others and it does matter.

We have been brought up to be considerate to others. When that's not an important part of one's upbringing we can do anything not caring about the others. But when we do know and think of others these decisions become very very hard. Its not easy to be thinking of what we want without thinking of others!
WE need to be very careful of how we do things and make our decisions. Some of our decisions do end up hurting some, but there are somethings that we have to do.
Its not the best place to be in. It's so hard to be caught in the middle of your mind and your heart! Who do you listen to...??

I am soo confused at times as to what I want in life. All because of outer influences... When will the time come for me to just make that choice! Any choice without thinking of otherS! Or just being able to be ok with my choice without outer influenceS!

Anyone have any clues?

Dear R,
Now that you have asked..will let you know the secret!

So..it all depends on your priorities. you need to get them right. For eg, if you want to make a career shift and in that process have to move to a different location, while you also have relationships which require time investments, the question maybe- should i make such a location change which takes me away from my loved ones? Answer- depends on
1a)What the job has on offer
1b)can you make a shift after 1-3 yrs of being in that job to a better placed location in the same job or outside it?
1c) will it become a lost opportunity, rare to come by again

2) Amt of time investment required in your relationship(can you travel back and forth enough?)

3) It may be good to reason out with the other party and take their inputs. Their level of care and concern for you, will be evident from their response
If they are elders, give some weightage to their experience, it helps!

whatever have written down, i know id easy to say equally difficult to follow as some things cannot have purely logical solutions! hehe :)
Nevertheless ATB with whatever is weighing on your mind. hope above help! :) cheers!
