Ok, this is going to be yet another boring post..
So for those who dont want to continue and find something more interesting, go to StumbledUpon
Oh, so you want to continue ??
Let me warn once again - this is going to be one more self-complaining yet contradictingly complementing post; and perhaps reaching no conclusion..
This is not an of-late finding, but I have frequently observed myself making weird choices and decisions, that are more often than not second to the best !
Taking for instance the new phone that I selected for my mother - had seen a decent camera dual sim phone, but on the verge of purchasing; changed to a non camera dual sim querty phone !
Going back a little - the choice of pursuing MTech immediately after my undergrad seems so very sub-optimal now; considering that I had a very good job offer in hand !
And even further back - switching over to computer science for B.E, when my passion was electronics then was a similar scenario - though it has not turned out to be a total blunder...
And this conscience crops up in things big or small - right from insignificant grocery purchases to life changing decisions(if any taken until now)
I have reasoned out two main things for such happenings:
- one is the more than needed trust I place in the words of others who speak in favour of the "second-best thing" when making the choice.
- second is the inherent indecision that rests within me; that probably gets amplified when taking a decision.
One thing about such choices is that they dont turn out to be totally useless or less beneficial - but they do leave a small glitch about not being best of best; that surfaces time and again..
How many of you have had such similar experiences ???
