So yesterday I had a lot of fun making the list of 100 things, I decided to make another one.
It's interesting to me, that the more learned, the more you realize you actually don't really understand it. I mean, there is an understanding, but really diving into one field, it's as if knowledge is a tree, and every time you think you've zoned in on a specific aspect of that tree- perhaps one branch, it's as if that branch becomes another tree, and every time you further specify your search, you notice dozens of little branches actually coming out of that branch, and each smaller branch containing just as many smaller branches connecting to it. Life is really amazing that way, everything is so connected that trying to only learn one thing, is either very disconnected from the entire picture, or learning one thing means actually learning many many things.
I'm learning the art of making decisions. So I decided that this would be a nice topic to try and go for a list of 100 in. looking at it now, I'm going to pretend I know 100 ways to know if you've made the right decision, but we will soon find out if I can off the top of my head, list some!
1. You feel at peace.
2. Maybe no one else agrees with what you've decided, but your inner determination is so strong that no other voice but your own matters.
3. You feel free.
4. You feel excited and ready to start every day.
5. Even with the thoughts of all of the worst possible outcomes of that decision, your heart is happy and singing regardless.

7. There is no doubt in your heart, that this choice was 100% in line with your most innermost values.
8. People may not agree with what you've decided, but some of them really can't help but notice the sparkle in your eye!

10. Getting out of bed every day, is as enjoyable as a date with your best friend.
11. Even if the body may be experiencing some health challenges, your mind is clear.
