Between actions and consequences.

How much do you believe in/want the thing you know has life changing ramifications to actually do it?

I think it obviously depends on severity, but most people don't think. I think most people feel too comfortable to care.

Do you fear the ramifications of your actions?

Big question at such a small hour.

Like you said, depends entirely on severity and scale of the situation.

I’d eat my flatmate crumpets without a second thought. I might even send a picture of me doing it because I like the rush of ruining someone’s day.

I probably wouldn’t steal a car though

Risk =/= I guess.

Yes I do. I’m a worrier anyway, but it’s a reason why I’ve not met anyone since last March. I’m scared I’ll kill my mum off for a 5 minute knee trembler.

It’s fairly relative, for me, though some people will have differing impulse control or do things over and over even if they’re massively regrettable.

I’d happily do some things that I think are fine, that others would be instantly angry about, or I’d laugh at bigger things that others would probably cut ties with people over.

I’d speak honestly to friends even if they would seriously not like the content of conversation, or be spontaneous in my personal life without fear of reprisal or judgement. But I wouldn’t go and commit a random crime.

I’d leave work for a new passion if I felt I needed to, and I’d drop something which was bringing me down, regardless of potential ramifications. There are healthy and great tools out there to help make such decisions, either within 10 seconds or to mull over. Both have worked for me, in the main

Would 10 minutes swing it?

I don't fear them because I've made the conscious decision to do that action.

What about you OP?

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The seriousness of the action affects the seriousness of the consequences.

Little decisions do not require much thought.

But when making a serious decision I always weigh up the pros and cons beforehand.

If it involves other people I generally suffer myself to save the other person hassle or upset. Unless of course the person is a complete cunt.

I'm a worrier, an overthinker and I think of so many different scenarios and outcomes. I'm a catastrophiser, mainly coz I know if the worst did happen I'd never forgive myself.

Enough to do it if it's not going to have a negative impact on those I love, I have to consider others as well as myself because that's how I am. I'd rather push myself than live life too comfortably. It does depend on how much I want it obviously and also my frame of mind at the time - I'm prone to overthinking but once I've decided on something and know it will change my life for the better, I'm pretty sold on it.

I think it obviously depends on severity, but most people don't think. I think most people feel too comfortable to care.

Do you fear the ramifications of your actions?

Yes, as above I'm prone to overthinking. Again, it's circumstantial obviously - if it was potentially negative I do worry about the impact of it. If it's positive and I've made my mind up, I go with it, I can be rather headstrong once my head is in the right place.

The initial worry can be a biggie although I try not to show it. I suppose I’m naturally quite cautious and methodical which is why I’m a good fit in my career.

However there’s a part of me which reacts against the expected, boring outcome and that’s the bit that makes feel alive. I’m probably the most dull person you could meet that would regularly hit 150mph on a motorbike
