Q is for Questions
Lately, I've been having to ask myself a lot of questions. Mostly to do with my life and decisions. I question where I'm going, what I want to do, was university the right choice?
If there's anything I'm exceptional at, it's being indecisive. When people can't decide between two shades of blue and call themselves indecisive, I just laugh and think 'You have no idea.' I've always had a problem with decisions. I don't really have a favourite of anything: be it band, singer, colour, drink, actor...there's too many choices. When it comes to a career, I can't make a choice for the path I want at all. It's really frustrating for me, especially now I'm 19, my first year of university is almost over and I still have very little direction in life, and I'm no way near close to coming to a decision.
When I make a decision, I question my choice several times over, and my conclusion usually rests in someone else's hands. I have to run my decisions by someone else, be it family, friend or my boyfriend. Such decisions have been small, like an item of clothing, and other's have been huge, like my decision to come to university or not. You see where it becomes an issue?
I do believe it's right, to 'question everything', but once is quite enough in my case. By questioning my decisions and always needing support from another, it shows how little belief I have in myself. I hope soon, I find my path and I stop questioning myself and the decisions I've made in the past.

I question nearly everything I do. Sometimes it can be negative effect, but I just like to be sure!
ReplyDeleteI think it's important to question things from time to time but sometimes I think you just need to go for it (:
DeleteThis is SO true! I'm like that too, making my decisions on the basis of some person or another in my life.
ReplyDeleteWell, career wise, I'm 24, and I still don't know where mine is going! What are you studying? And where? I'm doing a Masters in Electronics engineering from Edinburgh Uni :)
I know, I think it's good to ask other people's opinions some times, but perhaps not all the time!
DeleteI'm studying English and American Lit at Keele university!
That's great! I wish I'd studied English :P
DeleteAh there's always time! :P
DeleteI used to do that sometimes hehe. Maybe you don't want to make decisions because you are afraid of them going wrong? So maybe you let others take the decisions for you because if anything happens, you won't blame yourself for it. I don't know about you, but that's what I did. I think that sometimes we just have to stop the fear and go for it. No matter what happens :D
ReplyDeleteby the way, I nominated you for the Versatile award :) http://bluebellsandowls.blogspot.mx/2013/04/my-versatile-award.html
DeleteLove,

I think you're right, I imagine I do exactly that! I'm really trying to now stop the fear, stop feeling the need to ask everyone's opinions and just do what's best for me!
DeleteOoh thank you, how very lovely of you! :)

Thank you! I know it's always a worry not knowing what's going to happen if you make this or that decision, if only we could see into the future aye! haha!
DeleteThank you for the follow! (:
My managers at job have had a hard time with me asking questions all the time on different processes that is followed. Over the years I have grown wise and I do my own analysis as I figured most managers themselves do not have answers as they had not asked any questions and my questions made them uncomfortable. :)
ReplyDeleteSo although I ask questions, I keep them to myself and try to resolve that as much as possible.

I often find in my job that people just expect me to know things rather than need to ask questions, so I tend to just do the same really, figure things out myself! Best way sometimes :)
