How do I know if I did the right thing?

I think that if you listen to your gut feeling, you will know. Our bodies and subcouncious minds are good at talking too us through sensations in the body, we can feel shame in the stomach when we have done something bad or a warm feeling in our chests when we like someone. I think you need to be mindful about the way your body speaks to you to know what's right.

There is nothing right or wrong but thinking makes it so. You have done the right thing if you're happy with the results. Sometimes things takes time but the important thing is what you learned from your decision 🙂

The short answer is, you often can't know if you did the right thing. The longer answer is, there often isn't such thing as 'the right thing' in any situation. You can respond to any situation in lots of different possible 'right ways'. The problem is, when you ask the question as to whether something you did was right or wrong, you are actually asking lots of different questions. You are asking things like "is there a chance that what I did might upset someone", or "is there a chance I might regret the thing I just did". Those questions are hard to answer, because they are based on so many unknowns, so many hypotheticals. The best way forward is to instead ask "did I have good intentions when I did that thing". Sure, bad things might happen from good intentions, but it is helpful to remember that you did that thing from a good place. Hopefully, this will give you the confidence to be an active agent in your life, to make bold actions and not to be held back by the many 'what if' questions that can arise with any tough situation.

Knowing what the right thing to do is hard, and everybody will have a different opinion on what the right thing is. I would say if you feel like you have done the right thing, then you probably have. Don't let other people's opinions and beliefs get in the way of how you feel. We all need to trust our own moral compass and things will work themselves out in the end

You can't. Only time will tell if it was the right thing to do or not. Be patient and have faith. Good luck!

It takes time, very often. Think about who you did the right thing for. Someone else? Yourself? It's very much possible that you have done the right thing and the bad thing at the same time, just for different people. The best choice keeps you happy. We're humans, we're self-centered- whether we like it or not.

Follow your heart. Try flipping a coin to see which outcome it lands on. This cann help show you where you heart really lies if you are hoping that the coin will land in a certain way.

The "right" thing is ever changing and a difficult thing to pin down. Sometimes it can be simple and you know exactly what the right thing is. Other times it's not so simple and you might need to choose between options where people might be affected either way. Weighing up all the pros and cons and making the best decision you can is sometimes all you can do and the closest to making the "right" decision.
