I thought that the method that he used to determined what to do wasn't totally based on him not having any decision making at all. He chooses the cards. He chooses what is written the cards. It isn't totally by chance. He could choose only those that he likes as to what to write on the cards. He had some conscious decisions to determine what he was to do disregarding the picking of the cards. He could have marked the cards.

He wasn't living his life totally by chance with those cards.

He was living a lie with those cards.

The nature of which he took it seemed extreme.

He was doubting his decision making. Yet, his decision to "not decision" was his decision that affected his life since. One thing that he didn't notice was that he had no choice but to trust his own decision. It's inescapable. I first saw this sometime after someone said to me once "I don't trust myself"(that's why I destroyed my debit card). When the person acted on the decision to destroy his debit card, he was trusting his decision(therefore trusting himself).

When the main character was going thru this, he was trusting himself that he made the right decision for himself. What probably didn't realize was that there were things beyond a man's control. Bad things happen with that. Because of this, your average of happiness may be lower than the average despite all of the best choices for yourself.

Through the movie, I was thinking that he was making decisions for himself. It wasn't completely by chance.
