• Try not to be concerned with it. It's a spiritual thing. Don't look for the results, don't live in the payoff. Live in the moment which is a spiritual principle.

As my life is none of my business.

Realize that decision making, like any skill you focus on improving, gets better the more often you do it.

That we create our lives as we go.
