Decisions decisions...

It is scientifically proven we have the tendency to convince ourselves that every decision we make is acceptable, regardless if it is a good or bad choice. Majority of choices are based on instinct, but it is after that choice we begin to rationalize with ourselves that "I have made the right decision". We tend to find the positives with every decision made in order to convince ourselves that we did not miss out on any other opportunity.

Take purchasing a house for example. You paid for it. And even if there are cracks, leaks or bad neighbours, you would say "it needs some work". You won't say "I should've bought another house" otherwise you are dismissing the time and money put into your investment.

You miss out on opportunities of love because you're too lame to ask her/him out. But after the fact that the opportunity passed you by, you would say "well I'm too busy to be in a relationship", or "She/He's probably bad for me anyways". You get the point? We often fool ourselves in living a falsified notion of what is acceptable in order to be contempt.

I will move in 3 months time. And I will tell myself that I have made the right decision because I invested time and effort into the move. There will be no regrets. That way, I will be contempt. By shutting off everything that is rational. That's really sad. But it's human nature I guess...
