       My grandmother, who I call Nana, is the person I turn to when I have a problem. She's had many experiences in her life, and I think that qualifies her to give some really good advice. I can't really remember one specific piece of advice she has given me, but most of her suggestions involve listening to your heart, or "going with your gut". She reminds me to pause before making a big decision, and really listen to what my body is telling me to do; according to her, you have to make the choice that feels right to you at the time. I am a very indecisive person, and I always worry that I'm going to make the wrong decision, so this advice has really helped me. When I'm contemplating a decision, I stop for a second (or a few minutes, a few hours, etc.), and really try to tune in to what my body is telling me. I always come to a decision, and I rarely regret the choice I've made after the fact. This advice also applies to past decisions; I've made some decisions in the past that I wish I had made differently, but when I mention this to my Nana, she assures me that "it was the right decision for me at the time." This reminds me to not dwell on my past decisions; what's done is done, and everything will turn out alright.
