When Decision Making and Feminine Energy Collide: What is FOBO and how to create space for uncertainty . . .

On Sunday, I listened to an episode of All The Hacks podcast with , the man that literally created the term FOMO.

Enter the term I hadn’t heard before, Fear of a Better Option - FOBO.

Essentially, McGinnis’s theory is that we are obstructing our own happiness by focusing on what decision to make.

I pondered this conversation and analyzed FOMO, FOBO and McGinnis's definition of making choices through my own exploration and how facing fear head on, was actually helping me embrace my feminine energy more, so long as there was safety in routine.

Somehow I got from FOMO to Morning Routines in my writing sesh and exploration . . . I think you'll enjoy it.

I can't fit the entire roundup in 2200 characters, so you can head to my bio and click the link (or go to athenasimpson.com/writing/fobo) to see what all these things have in common (and what you can do to stop being crippled by decision overload).
