What decision are you avoiding - even though you already know the answer?
Oct 15, 2025
There’s a cost to not deciding.
You feel that cost before you can name it.
It shows up as an undercurrent. A quiet contraction in your chest. A sense of something being off. You’re busy, but not present. Perhaps you feel irritated, slightly nervous. Frustrated or angry.
When you already know but haven’t claimed it, that’s where the energy leaks.
You say yes when your body has already said no.
You leave the door half-open when you want to close it.
You tell yourself to “give it time” when time isn’t the issue. It’s clarity.
And pretending you’re still figuring it out?
That’s more exhausting than the decision itself.
I’ve been there and the cost of not moving, not making the decision is costing. A lot!
I see it in the rooms I hold. The moment someone finally names what they’ve known all along, the energy shifts. The energy finally feels light.
Until then, they loop stories that no longer matter. Their body stays alert, trying to protect them from the truth that’s already here.
This is how we burn energy we didn’t realize we were spending.
And the moment you claim what you already know, your body drops. Your breath deepens. You stop performing clarity. You start living it.
It’s not dramatic.
It’s a quiet, fierce decision to stop betraying what your body already told you.
If you’re feeling off, start here:
What decision am I avoiding because I already know it’s true?
And if you want to go deeper:
What do I not want to feel if I stop pretending I don’t know?
That’s the mirror moment.
Love,
Rita
