• To make decisions about the life you want to live is to make trade-offs. This therefore showcases the importance of living authentically given your own decision-making process given an intimate understanding of what truly makes you happy. If you don’t know, then reflect for yourself (it’s tiring and you may question and change your mind after having placed so much effort and energy chasing what you previously thought was making you happy, but not following through will leave you with regret given your inability to choose yourself authentically due to the existence of opportunity costs and the understanding of your own sentiments and feelings, even unconciously).
