Important Takeaways from ShowWe make 35,000 decisions every day – no wonder we struggle to make the big ones. 
Unmade decisions hold a lot of power. External busyness can seep into our souls internally.
When we feel hurried on the inside, it can be difficult to discern what we really long for and what might be best.  There is a connection between what we believe about God and our ability to make decisions with confidence. 
A wrong decision is just a wrong decision – it doesn’t mean we’re wrong. It doesn’t speak to our identity, just our situation. "Clarity cannot be rushed"- Marie Forleo
When seeking direction, look for"arrows"not just answers.
The point is not a decision, a plan, or certainty, but union with God.
