Make Sure You Have at Least Three Options

Sometimes we see no freedom of choice.
If we believe we have no choice we tend to feel under compulsion.
I have to do this.
I have no real choice.
This feeling is a signal that we’re backed into a corner with only one option and that more choices are needed.

If we have two choices, that’s usually not much better.
This is called a dilemma!
On the one hand this.
On the other hand that.
I don’t know which way to turn.
When we realize undecidedness it is a signal that we’re caught on the horns of a dilemma, and need more options to choose from.

Thus, we generally need at least three options to avoid feeling trapped. And we need to have at least three appealing options to feel that there’s some real choice.
Most time in life we have choices.
They may not be immediately obvious, so take a little time to think.

In worst case, at least we always have a choice over how we go about it.
