Decisions, decisions....

Which would you say are the hardest decisions to make? The ones which only involve you, or the ones which outcome affects others?

It is not as easy as it seems to answer that question. At least it is not for me. When I am the only one who will feel the pros or cons of a decision I make, or for that matter don't make, I would say the risk are easier to take, But, there is the problem, unless we live in a cave or and island all by ourselves, very few things we do affect just ourselves. I do know some people who don't subscribe to that idea or belief and perhaps they are wiser than I am. Many I believe will make the best decision as they see it and let the chips fall where they may. I on the other hand make every decision a big one, perhaps even bigger than it deserves to be, thinking of how it will affect those around me. If the effect could always be a positive one, then the decision is a given, but when that outcome is not as clear...

Sometimes we have no choice but to make a decision and hope for the best outcome for all involved. Those decisions however, are not easy or hard as it were, since we don't have more than one option or choice in that particular matter.

Am I making things harder than they are? Maybe.
