Community: A decision
Each week, we gather our community’s wisdom. This week, we asked:
What's an important decision you made recently?
"Making a drastic career change (at 27)."
"Leaving someone that I love."
"To leave my job to take care of my mental health."
"I was sick this week, so I missed a lot of school. I have spent a lot of time trying to catch up. I finally felt well enough to come to school, but I didn't really want to go because I felt that I was too far behind and would never catch up; but I ended up coming to school - and I'm glad I did. My friends and teachers welcomed me back with open arms and didn't judge me for not understanding a topic, they took time and helped me understand it. This taught me that I can overcome, and there are people in my life that care about me."
"Whether or not to create a firm boundary between myself and my brother. I chose to create it to protect my own peace."
“Decided to start exercising.”
“Cutting people off who were hurting me.”
“Less alcohol intake and stronger boundaries.”
“Start therapy.”
“Saying no to my partner for the first time for my own good.”
“Take a few days off work for my mental health.”
“I actively let go of a person who I care about, who does the opposite of building me up.”
“Start painting classes.”
“Purchasing a home with my husband.”
“I’m starting to actually sit down and do my school work, it’s the least stressed I’ve felt in years.”
“To break up with my boyfriend. Our relationship was over and I have known it for some time.”
“Not work for some time so I can help my husband while he recovers from an illness.”
“Getting the knee surgery I postponed for 18 years.”
“Finally starting my masters degree.”
“Registering to vote.”
“To avoid arguments about my goals.”
“I accepted a new job opportunity.”
“Ending a serious relationship that no longer brought me happiness.”
“Let people be wrong about me.”
“Take a short break in my career to discover what I want.”
“Pursue my dream of being an artist. I’ve put it off for too long.”
“Cut sugar! 4 days already. 100 days sober too.”
