Worth Noting:
- In a courtship situation when you fail to indicate to your potential partner your willingness to marry or not to marry him or her then both of you take time each thinking that things will change in his or her favour thereby delaying the other potential partner time to make the necessary social and legal arrangements.
- While you think of training to ride or to swim, theory is important but when it is alone it would not work for you. You need to have practical skills which can only be acquired by participating in actual riding or swimming otherwise you will just remain with theories and imaginations. Those with Practicals but have not learnt theory are better placed than those with theory and no Practicals.
Each indecision brings its own delays and days are lost lamenting over lost days. What you can do or think you can do, begin it. For boldness has magic, power, and genius in it…………. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
As a short term measure being indecisive is considered good more so when there are protagonists as everyone on both sides of divide see a chance of the indecisive person joining his side so they will remain busy trying to woo you as you can fall on either side. You act as double agent and remain relevant.
In matters surveying those unprofessional in their conduct may have private talks with neighbours on both side and lie to either of them that he will favour them in his work only to perform the duty fairly though he has received bribes from both clients on top of salary. Over time each of the neighbours feels more privileged than the other some of them go ahead and speak of how favoured they are only for the neighbour having a similar version of story see it is wise to confirm the news by hiring another surveyor who indeed proves that demarcation was done correctly.
Entering in to secret talks with the previous surveyor and delaying in informing the neighbour of insincerity of the talks with the surveyor results to both the neighbours to spend more money hiring another professional to verify the work previously done.

The time you may spend memorizing the theory at times could be more than the actual time you could use to practically train.
Since the controversial rejected goal scored by England against Germany in 2010 world cup the FIFA introduced video assisted referee (VAR) after that tournament was over so that anything unclear to the referee he can recheck immediately to enable him to make an informed decision before the game continuous instead of waiting to review the incidence after the game has ended which usually result to one tem being denied a just decision.
In life failing when doing something is not the greatest tragedy in fact it is lesser tragedy compared to not trying to take the action as failure to make trial leaves you in doubts of what would have happened if you made a trial.
Think of Thomas Edison who during the invention of an electric lamp failed a record a thousand times then succeeded, you will appreciate the need to take the necessary actions.
Whenever you take a bold step and implement a plan and fail then you are able to audit your plan, identify the weak point, strengthen it and make another trial and probably succeed.
Once the process starts running smoothly you will never be worried of related weaknesses in future as you will know the way forward.
A farmer who is troubled by crop pests and diseases should not fail to cultivate for fear of the crop pests and diseases rather need to identify their cure thereafter be able to effectively control them.
Never delay in making decision for fear of failure as that you not offer you solution. Forge ahead and make decision if it does not work you will be able to correct it in the next attempt.
When covid-19 troubled the world in 2020 and there was no vaccine the medical practitioners used the viral medicines available for related diseases until they controlled the disease until the vaccine was discovered. If they had delayed in making decision until the vaccine was discovered then a lot of people could have died of the disease.
Where necessary avoid delays and it will amount to avoiding regrets in life.
