Bhagavad Gita written almost 5000 years ago is not only a religious book for religious beings. It is a book that has deep wisdom imbibed in it. Wisdom people across ages and century can use.

In this blog, we will tell you 10 ways to make the right decision that you will never regret the wisdom of The Great Lord Krishna.

1. Choose Your Feelings, Don’t Let Them Choose You

Feelings are irrational. They are like two-year-olds. Are the feelings even yours in the first place? You walk by a street and 100 feelings will pop in your head, how many of them are yours? How many of them actually serve any purpose? Feelings come and go. Do not have a clean bowel movement someday and see how all your feelings change. Watch your feelings from one hand distance and pick them as you please and not let them pick you.

2. Emotions Cloud Your Judgement

Do not take any decision when you are very happy/excited or are very sad/angry. As high emotions cloud our judgment. A happy person will be more open than he should be, and a sad person would be more closed up than he should be.

3. Know The Motivation

Do not make any decision out of Moh and Maya. You tend to tolerate more stupidity of people dear to you, this can harm yourself and themselves too. Do not make decisions because you feel empty inside and think only something worth struggling for can make you happy. As you are going after that thing for a selfish reason, and once you get it, you will look for another thing to fill the hole inside.

4. Why should you not Focus On The Results?

Not all variables are under your control. You can do all you possibly can and yet things will not turn around the way they should. This is because of two reasons: either you are limited or other people involved.

If you have done all you could possibly do, and still things don’t turn out the way they do, it is not your fault.

5. Do not Resist Change

Everyone dies. All material reality is impermanent. Be open to change and get out of your comfort zone. Make bolder decisions, make better decisions.

6. Have a Why Clear

While making any decision keep ‘the why’ clear, so when the hard situations storm your mind, you can stay anchored.

7. Aim Higher

Find your highest possible truth and make your decisions in line with them.

8. Selfishness is stupidity

Do not do to others what you do not want to be done upon yourself. An eye for an eye and soon the whole world will be blind. See God in all. Act through the God within you.

9. Trust In God

Trust the universe, God or consciousness, they only mean good for you.

There’s no shame in asking for help, ask people for better advice, or read Gita to enhance your perception and see things clearly.
