Choices are what we are surrounded with, but they are ineffective until we make a decision for which ever choice or choices. Even a wrong decision is better than no decision, because at least you have taken an action you can then correct for a new decision. I'm reminded of story of the donkey between two bales of hay who starves to death because he can't decide which bale of hay to eat. It is a laughable image but I think it makes the point. There is power in decision, so you are not a victim, but you choose/decide on your direction/action. But preparation for a decision is needed so you have knowledge as far as possible when you decide on which choice is better at present.
