"How can we ever be sure if we are making the right choices?"

I trust my gut, but if I'm not sure then I ask myself two questions. Would I be ashamed to do this in the presence of my mother? Would I be ashamed to do this in the presence of my partner? If either answer is no then I can live with consequences.

There's a more philosophical answer that talks about everything starting as space dust and that one hundred years from now no one alive will know we had a choice, let alone if we made the right one. There's freedom in recognising our insignificance to the universe and allowing ourselves to care about the innocuous.
