Always Do What is Best for You

Whenever I asked people for advice, they would always say, “You have to do what is best for you,” and it would frustrate me because, if I knew what to do, I wouldn’t ask for their advice.

Now that I am older, with enough experience to bring wisdom to my situations, I don’t have to ask people for advice as much.

Recently, I had to make the tough decision to not visit family I planned to visit for Christmas because they did not want to take a COVID test. Actually, the reason is because of the rude remarks made to me for requesting the test. I psyched myself into going despite their unwillingness to take the test, but the rudeness made me less comfortable. It began to mentally weigh on me to the point I was mentally tired. The situation also reminded me of other times these two individuals have emotionally abused me or negated my thoughts and feelings.

So, I asked myself, “What is best for you?”

I decided that while I would love to spend time with these two, get hugs, and have lots of fun, I can do (most of) this virtually through a phone call, a video call, and virtual games. I can protect my physical and mental health this way and make everyone happy and calm. I feel the mood has shifted and my attendance will be met with a perception and ticking bomb that will only hurt me.

If I was in this situation ten years ago, I would be asking people, “what should I do?” Now, equipped with years of experience that reveals a pattern of behavior from these individuals when it comes to my thoughts and feelings, I know what to do.

So, give yourself time and grace when you don’t know what is best for you. Let your advisor know that you don’t know what is best for you and that you trust their wisdom to help you.

If you do know what is best for you, then do it — confidently and unapologetically.

Peace.
