Decision Paralysis When Trying to Serve God

“One of the best ways to overcome the perfectionistic fear of making a mistake in what you decide to do is to realize that deciding nothing is the biggest mistake. There’s your deal-breaker. That’ll get you going. In other words, you are not in a neutral zone. There are no neutral zones. Not to move toward a God-sized goal in this next season of your life is to disobey. So, standing still is not an option, because it means you’re drifting. You’re never standing still — you’re drifting and you’re coasting with the culture and the way of the world.” - John Piper
