To Be or Not To Be. The Spiritual Art of Making Decisions

To Be or Not To Be. The Spiritual Art of Making Decisions

You know the one where the fellow who says, I used to think I’m indecisive… now I’m not so sure.

It makes us smile. But for many, it’s not just a joke.

Do you struggle with making decisions? So many people speak about procrastination, second-guessing, commitment issues — the constant back-and-forth. Bottom line: the inability to be decisive, to come to a decision and move on one way or the other.

At times it’s amusing. At times it’s annoying. And at times, it’s far more serious. How many important life decisions have we pushed off? Delayed? Avoided? Sometimes to our own detriment and even to the detriment of others.

Indecisiveness is not just a personality quirk. It’s something that needs to be addressed and understood. Is it coming from a deeper place within us? Or is it something more superficial; fear of failure, fear of commitment, fear of losing options?


Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson as we explore the deeper roots of this dilemma, the inability to decide. You may be surprised to discover that the struggle to choose is not just psychological, but also spiritual at its root.
