A lesson from Sigmund Freud (IM 677)

Sigmund Freud gave an important lesson about decision making which is worth applying in our real life. It goes: " When making a decision of minor importance, I have always found it advantageous to consider all the pros and cons. In vital matter, however, such as choice of mate or a profession, the decision should come from the unconscious, from somewhere within ourselves. In the important decisions of our personal life, we should be governed, I think, by the deep inner needs of our nature."
