Some circumstances warrant protecting your time and effort. Saying no to everything and ruthlessly keeping space becomes your priority. Space that can hold the opportunity to take something that excites you.
There are distractions thrown your way. Carrots are dangling in front of you, making you believe that a brighter future lies in following a defined path. They are others' views of the opportunities, not yours.
When you are picky about what you want to do - the right way to go is to say no until you can say whole body yes to something that ignites you. Eventually, what you do may work or not. But you made your choice.
Some other circumstances warrant a mechanism for creating opportunities. You ought to find ways to use your time and effort to do something worthwhile. Say yes to what comes your way, and keeping up with exploration provides experience. Experience in what among many options to pick from. By knowing what those options involve.
When you are open about what you want to do - the right way to go is to say yes and grab opportunities, learn from your experience and decide the focus that keeps you happy. In the process, you experiment, fail and pick what is closest to your interest. Your pick is still your choice.
Unentangling ourselves from indecision requires a firm step forward. That step is taken only by saying Yes! It does not matter how you arrived at yours!
