| |
| Every single day we are bombarded by choices we need to make. Ultimately, our lives are defined by these choices. What should you eat? Should you go to the gym? Should you ask for that promotion?

We want our decisions to be the “right” decisions forever. Why? Because we fear change and we fear making the ‘wrong” decisions. We want to have the opportunity to make everything last forever.
