What is the most confident decision you've ever made?

Question

What choice have you confidently made or had to make in your life?

Answer 1

Droping out of school. I know it sounds stupid but it worked out wonders for me. I landed a great paying job doing something I like of curse with computers without any experience. I got lucky though. I hated school so I did not really have a choose.

My problem with school is you need each brick to put the next brick in place. If one thing is not working out and its a brick you need then your life goes no where. I loved to program and worked at it and everything also worked building PC and as a tech years ago. But I hated almost every aspect of public and high school. I droped out in grade 12 and got lucky.

Answer 2

To trust an unseen God with my life. I made a decision to put my life in His hands when I knew my end had come. It was my only remaining choice to make, so I had absolute confidence that this was the time I would know if God is real or not without doubt. He IS.

Answer 3

After I finished university, I took an English teaching job and I went to Warsaw, Poland, for a year and some months. Before I left, I knew nothing about the world, or even taking care of myself (I was still living with my parents at the time).
Today, not the slightest hint of a regret. One of the best ideas I ever had.

Answer 4

I thought it was to quit my well paying job and just enjoy my remaining life (hopefully at least equal to the 30 years I had successfully slogged in my job) - every wellwisher had disapproved.

Now I find I need even more confidence deciding everyday to remain without a job, in the wake of all the scorn and slight that comes my way, even from strangers, for being 'Idle'.

Answer 5

To buy my house. It was scary to do on my own but once I believed in myself, made the decision & committed to it, it was the best thing I ever did! Leaving my comfort zone, moving to a new community, taking a big financial risk were all terrifying but something I knew I had to do in order to grow. Courage isn't the absence of fear, it's feeling the fear & doing it anyway.

Now I'm all settled in & I love my home!

Answer 6

A: The decision that gave me a confident life.
I heard about a loving and forgiving God who gave his son to live and die for me so that I could be free from the condemnation and guilt that came from all the wrong decisions I had made in life. In confidence, I chose to believe God and to receive the forgiveness and freedom he offered me through his son Jesus. I am confident of God's love for me and I choose to live my life to be a blessing to Him and others daily. I am confident in His ability to strengthen me, provide for me, protect me and help me to serve others. I am confident that He has prepared a place for me in heaven and that he is worthy of my life and my praise.

Answer 7

The day I decided to not listen to my doctor and to listen to my intuition. It was right.

I don't recommend doing it but that is just how confident I was about it. I have no idea what I would have done if I didn't listen to that "little voice inside".

Answer 8

Getting a divorce. Best decision ever. Marrying him was my worst by the way.

Answer 9

To leave a crappy marriage. That was a long time ago and boy am I glad that I had such a sure feeling to do it...I am so much happier in my life!

Answer 10

I had to choose between two guys that I have fallin in love with! And it was hard which one I wanted to marry and which one I wanted as my best friend! But I did it!
