Taking The Red Pill Or Blue Pill

I often find myself wondering if I made the right decision. From financial matters, relationships, lotto numbers, education and career paths. Why do we start second guessing ourselves once we've committed to such important decisions? I guess once we really get a taste of reality and we want to turn back it seems to be too late.
I've recently started second guessing myself a lot recently. Without airing out too much dirty laundry, I'll try to vent it as much as possible. I've recently inherited a new role where I'm managing a lot of new adventures. That includes work, finance and caring for my elderly mom and aunt. Needless to say I need help but who can I turn to? Pretty much nobody. Its like the pile is growing at an alarming rate and I can't keep up. Though positive thoughts and inspiration keeps me going I have a feeling one day its going to come crashing down. I read and research solutions but then turning to those solutions start make me second guess myself again. I guess it is true when they say life isn't easy. We must look ahead and work at those solutions. There are road blocks everyday but I try to steer away from them and try to find inspiration. Life isn't what it was 10 years ago. I guess adjusting and tackling issues is the only way to get by nowadays. Like Rev Run says, don't look back. The windshield is always bigger than the rear view mirror.

We find ourselves holding grudges or dwelling on events from the past. Harboring negative emotions or not solving your issue can be unhealthy and taint your quality of life. If you have issues, there is nothing preventing you from fixing it. The only thing that prevents you from fixing it is yourself or your lack of motivation. Having a lack of motivation get the best of you can lead you to worse situations.
Holding grudges against other people can be emotionally draining. Isn't life too short to hold these grudges. Yes, we run into people everyday that can piss you off. However, you have to be the bigger person and shake that off and try to understand that person's point of view. Maybe you're not agreeing with their way of thinking so take the time and understand how that person came up with that particular conclusion. Once you look at that, try to rebuild that relationship and move forward. Learn from that and maybe that person you're dissagreeing with will also understand your point of view. Yelling and throwing tantrums do not solve anything. What it does is make you look like a bigger jackass. Use the power of words and things will work out.
Just remember, don't look back. Our lives and dreams always move forward so look straight ahead. You will encounter roadblocks and dissappointments, but you have to learn how to navigate through that road.
