choices

Imagine you have many paths to choose from, which one would you pick?

  • A path that looks promising, one you think you will like, but don't have a clear idea where it leads.
  • A path that is simple, doesn't give you much but is rather straigth forward. You have the feeling that it doesn't lead anywhere specific but it's a safe walk for a while. And probably not very difficult to switch from.
  • A path you have simply no idea about.
  • A path that is is not as tempting for you as the first, but safer. You know that if you can get around the few bends you will probably end up close to the destination.
  • One you have once tried and failed with and you are not very sure is the most interesting, but is probably easier for you this time ...


I am still not sure if my analogy is right about the paths I have, but it's how it looks for now ...

Farshid, the challenge is to make it without the undo button!

I think this analogy applies somehow but I like to add another one. A possible path behind us, the one we might need to reconsider sometimes, the path that has brought us to the point we are now and left us just the choice of the second and third paths, the choice of bad and worse...unclear and dim...

the bad thing about this path is that normally it costs a lot to choose it again, if not impossible..

the way it works with me is that i seldom give up, but if i do, i won't go back ... that's why i have "a path you failed" but i don't have "a path you gave up on" ...

I would take the path that my gut feeling is screaming about! The most exciting one!
