Mine was a case of cold feet from making a decision about where to live. And here are the lessons I learned from deciding if we should land on the east coast or back west:
Wooah -- Big decisions are tough to make.
Be careful who you take advice from, because what may be good for one person may not be good for you.
Turn to that friend who is a really good sounding board.
Talk to people who are neutral, you know, those who don't have an agenda as to what they want you to do.
Know that nothing has to be permanent.
Yes, there will always be pros and cons.
That you can never be certain of the future outcome of your decision, and that has to be okay.
That it helps to make a decision based on what it is that you want in the moment, right now....
You should be really excited about a part of your final decision.....Yes, there will be the scary mixed in with the exciting -- but a part of your decision should include the exciting....
And, whatever you decide to do -- jump into it with two feet.
