In our life, we take a lot of decisions. Every single day, every single minute. From waking up early or late in the morning to switching off the lights while going to sleep. These are the small decisions we take daily that do not require a lot of thinking, they barely bother us. I thought why not share one incident of my life.

I was in 7th grade when me and my friends just decided to go to a mall as we finished our exams. I was very excited, after all, who doesn't like to go out with friends? I had joined a sports class 5-6 months before, and I had my district matches for the same on the day we were visiting the mall. I got to know about this a week later we decided and the plan was not going to cancel. I was sure that I won't go to the competition as who will miss the enjoyment? My mother opposed me and said that “by hook or by crook you will not miss the matches, you will get another chance to go out with friends”. I was feeling very bad but I decided to go to the matches. I gave my best there. The results were out and I was fourth.  Only three girls were going for the states. I regretted my decision as I didn't qualify for the state. After some time they disqualified a girl as she did a mistake and guess what I got the third position and I was going for my first state matches. I was in shock and happy at the same time. I called my mother just after I got the news and she was happy too, I thanked her, you were right mom. I took the right decision.

Life is not as easy as it seems when it comes to take tough decisions. They may be about throwing your favourite toy, choosing your carrier, getting married, cheating in your exams, investing your money, etc. The choice made may decide if we live or die. Every choice you make will bring consequences along with it and having the power to face it is your choice. Weigh them and decide which one you can bear. Don't be fearful while making any choice or think that you are always right while you decide. Be reasonably balanced. Think about the well-being of everyone around you. Nobody can determine that what is right or wrong as nobody will come to the same conclusion. Life gives us two or more options with an uncertainty that which will work. Don't make any choice whimsically. 

Sometimes our society creates such circumstances around us that it becomes very difficult for us to make a choice. ‘What they will think?’ becomes more important for us than our own happiness and satisfaction. Do it for yourself, your happiness and your family. Don't think about right or wrong, just gain an experience from it.  Think twice, thrice before every tough decision you take, consult your parents, friends, or someone you trust. Think about what results you are going to get and then decide. Be optimistic, have faith in yourself and God, he is always there for your good. You will get the best result.
