The more options you have, the harder it is to choose.

It seems counter to what society tells us. With the right willpower, we can have anything. And while anything may be a stretch, life today gives us a lot of options.

But with optionality comes the fear that we’ll make the wrong choice. We waste time considering the what if’s, and often miss making the right call in a mental hailstorm storm of deliberation.

Having options and the freedom to choose one’s path is paramount. However, too many options can slow a person down or even cause them to take the wrong turn.
