My Overnight skill - Prompt #22
Greetings to my fellow midnight Owls. Hope our night is peaceful. Question of the week. WHAT IS ONE SKILL YOU WISH YOU COULD LEARN OVERNIGHT?
If there is one skill I wish I could learn overnight, it would be the ability to think quickly and make decisions with confidence.
I have noticed that I am not always a fast thinker, especially when I have to make important decisions. Many times, when something comes up that requires a quick choice, I find myself hesitating and overthinking. Instead of deciding immediately, I often prefer to call or wait until my husband comes back so I can first explain the situation to him before being sure of the steps to take.
It even got to the point that when I am provoked or upset about something, I still wait for my husband to come back so I can report the matter to him. Because he is a very peaceful person, he usually calms me down and advises me on how to react in a calm and reasonable way. Most of the time, the outcome turns out to be good and peaceful.
But I sometimes wonder if depending on someone else that much before reacting is the best way to handle things. I appreciate my husband's wisdom and calm nature, but I also wish I could develop that ability myself.
Right now it is 12 am, and I am awake thinking about this. In the quiet of the night, when everywhere is calm and still, I find myself reflecting on how helpful it would be to think faster and make confident decisions on my own.
So if I could wake up tomorrow morning with a new skill, it would be the ability to think fast, trust my judgement, and make wise decisions on my own when situations arise. I believe that being a fast thinker would help me respond better in challenging moments and handle situations more confidently.
But even though I can not learn it overnight, I hope and believe that with time, experience and constant practice, I will grow into someone who can think quickly, stay calm under pressure, and make the right decision when I need it.
What about you? What is that one skill you wish you could learn overnight? Feel free to share as I will be willing to read.
