Confidence in your choices means knowing you choose what’s right for you with the information you have at the time of the choice.

Once all the questions are answered in a way, we understand the path forward is clear and we are less likely to second guess our choice. Confident choices mean no need to look back because we can’t change the past. We can only move forward with the best information available at the time. Where are moving forward with confidence today? Where do you need more information?
