Latest / AWAKEN with Dylan Ayaloo: Inner Work, Healing, Yoga & Meditation / [EP10] How to avoid making the wrong decision
Transcript
- 0:00In terms of decision making, how do you know which one's right? Similar to gut, intuition, feeling. Please don't come up with it. Just decide. You always change your mind. So the answer is how do you know which one's right? The answer is you don't. That's just how life works. You don't know which is right.
- 0:23and life doesn't give you an insurance policy
- 0:26and say, oh here, let me save you from making mistakes.
- 0:33Making mistakes is only a mistake when you see it as a mistake.
- 0:39The mistakes, I think I said it in the business session the other day,
- 0:45you either learn, you either get the result or you learn.
- 0:49There are no failures.
- 0:51So you could treat your life like that too, because you are the CEO of your life, the
- 0:56business of your life.
- 0:57And you could treat things, the sooner you make the so-called mistakes, you get the learning.
- 1:04You either learn or you grow.
- 1:06You get the results.
- 1:08So you learn or you get the result.
- 1:10Either way, you win.
- 1:12But when you see learning as a problem, then you might see that as a mistake.
- 1:19and if you're always trying to avoid mistakes,
- 1:22which again comes back to our survival instincts,
- 1:25like we're always looking to not make a mistake
- 1:27because hopefully we will avoid all mistakes,
- 1:31how about you change it to the quicker I can make the mistakes,
- 1:36the quicker I can learn.
- 1:37And the more I learn, the less mistakes I'm going to make anyway
- 1:42because the more experience I have.
- 1:44And I'm not saying make stupid or silly mistakes,
- 1:48knowingly make silly mistakes.
- 1:50If you already know certain things are not going to work,
- 1:53then don't go down that path.
- 1:56Right?
- 1:58But the sooner you allow yourself to learn,
- 2:02you know, aka make mistakes,
- 2:05the sooner you get feedback.
- 2:08And the sooner you get feedback,
- 2:10the sooner you can kind of take that,
- 2:13integrate the learning into the thing,
- 2:19and chart course, you know, in a, maybe like a slightly different one degree away,
- 2:24or whatever the feedback was that you got.
- 2:26Right? Something didn't work in that way.
- 2:28Okay, so let me go in this direction, or let me make this change.
- 2:36So in terms of decision-making, that's why I say,
- 2:43decide, make a decision.
- 2:45Because if you couldn't make a mistake,
- 2:48Would you be so bothered about this whole decision making?
- 2:58Indirectly, if you want to talk energetics, what is it saying?
- 3:03You're learning trust.
- 3:05You're learning to trust yourself.
- 3:07You're learning to trust your gut.
- 3:09You're learning to trust your intuition.
- 3:11These are all words that you used.
- 3:13You're learning to trust your guidance, your connection to the divine.
- 3:20and when you don't want to make a mistake
- 3:23and you want to know the right answer, the right decision
- 3:27that's like saying I don't trust but I'm going to pretend like I do.
- 3:33Right, so part of developing your intuition
- 3:37if you want to use that word is practicing trusting.
- 3:43And practicing trusting means sometimes certain things
- 3:49didn't go the way you thought you got the information.
- 3:52And it's like, okay, was that my head saying it
- 3:55or was that my intuition?
- 3:59Did my mind make it up really cleverly
- 4:02because the mind is very clever?
- 4:04Or was that actually a guidance, an intuition?
- 4:13Because you could say,
- 4:14oh, but my intuition should guide me always
- 4:18make a mistake. No, that's your mind saying, I want to never make a mistake. I
- 4:25always want to make the right decision because I want to survive. Right?
- 4:30Ultimately, if you break it down, it's like survival again. But if you say
- 4:34intuition, sometimes it will guide us down a path that the mind doesn't want to
- 4:39choose, but that's where we grow, that's where we meet bigger
- 4:43opportunities, possibilities, and more becomes possible in our life.
- 4:53So it's all in perspective.
- 4:57And still, my answer is, make a decision.
