Most Choices Don't Matter

2025-06-10

If you’re often troubled by a decision, question how important it really is. More times than not the decision won’t matter that much. And all the time and effort you put into it was essentially meaningless. Steering you away from life itself. The things that truly matter.

I’m writing about this because it’s what I so often do. Wasting my time in decisions that after made I won’t look back to even once. Either they were much more easily reversible than what I was making them out to be, or they had much less impact than what I was thinking they had, at that specific crucial-seeming moment of decision making.

If you think you’re in one of those moments when you’re giving too much time (or thinking of giving it) to a decision that doesn’t warrant it, just flip a coin. Make the decision come from outside of you.

And accept it. That’s the hard part really, but if it doesn’t really matter you can learn to gradually accept these coin-made decisions and spend your time on things that matter much more to you.

Remember.

Just flip a coin.
