For some, this question may be confusing or even plain silly: “Of course bad decisions exist! How could they not?”, they’d claim. And they are not wrong – some choices are simply wrong. However, there are situations when we wonder about our correctness of our decision – and we might not need to. The definite […]
Before anyone starts wondering: no, I didn’t get married; no, it’s not a special birthday and no, it’s not the day I became a Muslim, vegan, Catholic or Republican. This day marks the start of much, much more important era in my life. It has been exactly 3 years since I made the commitment to […]
Without even realising, we make dozens if not hundreds of decisions every day: which seat to take on the underground, which cereal to buy at the supermarket, what music to listen to… And these are nothing compared to the conscious, often life-changing choices regarding our work, love life and home.

Clearly, I don’t mean actual imprisonment – that’s a whole different issue with its own debate about society and justice that I won’t get into now.
