I was watching this commercial last night and it questioned on how many times you question decisions that you have made. It referred to having money problems and whether you would send your child to college or not because of those money problems. It talked about if you gave your child a correct punishment that was deserved because of an act they had participated in and so fourth.
It had really nothing to do with what it was advertising about but it really made me stop and think of how many times we doubt the decisions we make every day. I think as much as we believe in what our decision is that there is always that little piece of doubt if it was the right one.
We hope that decision has the conclusions we are picturing it to have. No matter what the situation is we have to take the person or persons involved, the situation at hand, and combine the two to see how we see it all act out. What we see isn't always the way it plays through but we learn from that.
Not every decision we make has to be the best, that decision doesn't have to have the perfect ending. No matter how confident you are there will always be some doubts of your decisions. We are not made to be perfect people and we will not always make the perfect decision.
Don't put more pressure on yourself than you need to. If you have put thought into your decision and feel good about it, you have done your part. If things don't work out the way you had planned you can always make a new decision, now I'm talking the normal every day decisions.
Say that you are having financial difficulty and your child wants to go to college, of course look into any programs that can assist you, maybe have your child live at home and go to a community college, or have them hold off a year and work to save some money to attend the next year. As long as you are honest of the reasons for that decision with the people involved you are doing the right thing.
We put so much pressure on ourselves every day and we need to stop or at least give ourselves a break. This is just a thought for the day, the commercial just got me thinking.
