Everything is something you decide to do

"Everything is something you decide to do, and there is nothing you have to do" 

~Denis Waitley

When it comes down to it, you still have the choice to do it, because you can! Someone once said to me that sometimes  I need to be selfish to keep myself happy. It sounds so simple, but if you get conditioned into becoming someone because of cultural influences, then that statement means nothing.

I have reached a crossroad in my career, and some people accept my decisions and others don't. Whatever I decide to do will hurt someone.

So all that is left to do is to think about what I really want to do. I've got one person trying to convince me to do it, and another telling me it's the biggest mistake.

How do I make the right choice?
