If you ever catch yourself agonizing over every option – from switching jobs to picking tonight’s dinner spot – and wishing you had a magic crystal ball, this episode is your sign to pause.
We’ll uncover the subtle ways “I might make the wrong decision” hijacks your peace, and I’ll walk you step by step through spotting anxious thoughts, allowing the nerves that come with uncertainty, and finally choosing a bridging belief that sets you on a path of real confidence.
By the end, you’ll have a simple strategy for making decisions that feel right for you, without polling everyone you know or losing sleep over what-ifs.
How the thought “I might make the wrong decision” often shows up as subtle indecision, overthinking, or second-guessing – and why noticing its early signs can save you tons of stress.
Why we tend to avoid or overcompensate (e.g., exhaustive research or seeking everyone’s approval) when we fear making a “wrong” choice, and how self-awareness can gently disrupt that pattern.
The role of “confirmation bias” in fueling negative stories about your choices, plus simple ways to find evidence that you can, in fact, choose well.
What bridge thoughts are (e.g., “It’s possible I can handle any outcome”) and how they help shift you from paralyzing doubt to calm confidence.
A practical, incremental action plan (picking a small, low-stakes decision to tackle solo) that trains your brain to trust itself, even if you’re unsure or anxious.
