What Should You Choose?
Question: A person is faced with a choice of what to choose? If you were facing a choice, what would you identify as the most important thing and then follow through with this decision?
Answer: How I can detach from myself and only then make the correct choice. Only then will my choice be correct.
Question: So that my “I” would not command me?
Answer: Of course.
Question: How can it be done? It is a difficult question.
Answer: Detach yourself
Question: Meaning, I should not listen to my inner voice too much?
Answer: No, you cannot rely on anything here.
Question: What about examples? Let’s say other people tell me: “Look, I went there. I am already a scientist and I have a PhD. I am already a Nobel Prize winner. You should take this path.” And another person says: “I am already a businessman.” There are a multitude of various noises around me. Should I not listen to these people around me? You see, it is not an easy question, but it is there.
Answer: Then it is better not to choose anything. You rely on God’s will, as we say. You are not doing anything; you are just sitting, and that is all. As it is said: “Sit and do nothing, better.” What is next, God will give.
Question: Can I rely on Him?
Answer: You have to work; you have to do everything that is required. However, such important, crucial decisions are always difficult for a person.
I used to get questions from people about choosing a profession, college, or other things. I usually did not give advice. A person should figure out for himself where his soul or hand is pulling him.
Question: Still, I would like to follow your experience and ask about you personally. What do you choose when you have a choice? How do you make decisions?
Answer: I always decide for the maximum benefit of society because I know for sure that this is what the Creator wants.
I do not know whether I made a mistake or not. In general, we do not know whether we make mistakes or not.
Question: In general, we probably do make mistakes?
Answer: It does not matter. You do not know what would be in the other scenario. And so I imagine where would be the maximum benefit for the Creator. What would the Creator want me to do? And in general, that is for the benefit of society, for the people.
Comment: Perhaps there is something in this. When I make a decision according to what is best for me, then I will for sure make a mistake. However, if I am for society, then that is probably the answer.
Answer: You see, you have decided.
