Episode 156: The right decision doesn’t exist

When people are at the crossroads of life, they can often agonize over making ”the right decision.” However, implicit in the idea of ”the right decision” is the existence of many, many ”wrong” decisions, and this significantly increases the felt experience of pressure on the decider. This is not how I see the world. Instead of ”right” and ”wrong,” I see paths that go one way and paths that go another. The ”rightness” of one’s path is inseparable from the goals of the one who walks it. I’ll speak more on this in this episode. #right #wrong #choices
