Life is full of decisions. 

Some small: What should I make for dinner tonight? 

Others life-changing: Should I take this job? Should I marry this person? Should I move across the country?

And with every decision comes that little nagging question: Am I making the right choice?

If you’ve ever felt paralyzed by decisions—or crushed by regret afterward—you’re not alone.

If you’ve ever dumped out a box of puzzle pieces without the picture on the lid, you know how frustrating it can be. Thousands of little fragments, all scattered, and no clue where they’re supposed to go. You pick up one piece, turn it in your hand, maybe find a corner, but without the big picture, it feels random and confusing.

For many of us, that’s what life feels like.
