Okay, I think I've finally got my type, and it only took 10 years! It sorta came to me in a flash over the past couple of months :-)
So here's my question... When I'm attempting to decide something, everyone else's voice seems louder than mine. When I think I've decided, I still am not sure if it's my decision or if I've let myself be influenced by someone else's excitement/conviction re. what I should do. Sometimes I will pretend I've made the opposite decision, and see if I feel disappointment/remorse, but then I have to figure out if that's coming from me or feeling like I'm letting someone else down. So anyway! what have you guys found helps? Is it something that will just get easier with mindfulness? Are there specific questions you ask yourself?
Thanks in advance!
