The changes you choose feel scary. The changes you avoid choosing tend to choose you anyway.

Not deciding is itself a decision, and it is the one that hands the outcome to circumstances. The course you drift through, the job you stay in, the conversation you keep postponing: each of those resolves eventually, usually at a worse time and on terms you had no part in setting.

Name the decision you have been leaving open. Give it a date in the next fortnight and decide, even if the answer is to stay. Deciding to stay is different from drifting, and you will be able to feel the difference.
