The French philosopher Bridin once told a short story about a hungry donkey standing between two bales of hay. The grass on the left was fresh, and the grass on the right was rich. The donkey ran into a problem, not knowing which side to eat first, and finally starved to death.

In life, many people are like this donkey, hesitating when making choices. This not only wastes time and energy but also causes distress. Today, give you 8 golden suggestions to help you with your decision-making difficulties.

1 Speak Less

In a letter home that throughout the ages, the reasons for failure have been, first, arrogance, and second, too many and inappropriate words. Speaking too much can lead to trouble. The more you talk, the easier it is to cause misunderstandings. When in doubt about whether to speak, remaining silent is often the best choice.

2 Buy Less

During this materialistic era, various promotional activities emerge endlessly. As a result, many people buy things regardless of their actual needs. Maintaining rational consumption is important. Do not buy things that you can buy or not. When you are not burdened by external things, you will be at peace in your heart and enjoy the abundance of life.

3 Control Anger

Losing your temper will not solve the problem, it will only make the situation worse and drag you down. When you are in conflict and on the verge of anger, hold your temper. Only when you control your emotions can you be the master of your life.

4 Don’t Compare

Comparing yourself to others will only make you feel lost. Only by focusing on yourself can you force yourself to continue to grow. Everyone is only responsible for their own life. There is no need to envy others; just go at your own pace, and life will definitely improve day by day.

5 Take Action

Lenin said: “Don’t be a giant in thinking and a dwarf in action.” What defeats oneself is always the phrase “think again”; what overcomes pain is always the power of action. When wondering whether to take action or not, take the first step bravely. When you keep walking on the road, what you want will come to you.

6 Be Patient

There is nothing easy in the adult world, and everyone will be misunderstood and looked down upon. Those who can’t bear anything are doomed not to survive. Enduring the ups and downs will help you see the gorgeous rainbows ahead.

7 Read More

Reading can help you drive away confusion and help you fight mediocrity. When you feel empty, stop struggling and pick up a good book and read. In the literary and ink, absorb the wisdom of the predecessors, moisten the boring life, and lighten your own life.

8 Persevere

Often when you admit defeat, you are only one step away from the finish line. When you are hesitating whether to move on, don’t be entangled, and push yourself harder. Survive the darkest hour before the dawn, and the dawn will usher.

May these 8 suggestions help you break through tangles and find your way.
