About a month ago, I quit my job as an attorney and went full-time, stay-at-home-mom mode.In this episode, I’m sharing the questions and principles that have guided me as I’ve navigated law school, working as a part-time lawyer, and (temporarily?) "retiring."Questions for decision making:What feels like love?In a perfect world, what would I want? What decision is closest to that?What would I do if I didn’t care what anyone else thinks?What would I do if I didn’t have any worries about the future or end result?What would I do if I knew I would succeed no matter what?Compare gains and losses between the two decisionsWhich choice would I be more grateful for 5 years from now? 20 years from now? At the end of my life? In eternity?What part of me will die if I choose X? What part of me will grow?What would Jesus do?Which choice more effectively builds the kingdom of God?Which choice feels more interesting and exciting?Which choice feels more like discipleship?Which choice reminds me of my patriarchal blessing?Which choice will help me develop Christlike attributes?Which choice will help me become a better tool in the Lord’s hands?If worldly definitions of success didn’t matter, what would I choose?Which choice will open more doors?Where will I learn the most?Which choice will yield more valuable connections and relationships?Which choice will enhance my relationships with my family? Which choice leads to more long term happiness?Which choice allows more freedom?Which decision do you have to justify less to yourself? To others?Resources Mentioned:David A. Bender quoteA Theory of Objectivist Parenting by Roslyn RossScripture References:Proverbs 3:5–6
