I've been making several decision about where I'll live, work, how to handle various things, etc. I'm not saying I'm gonna be an asshole about it from now on, but I do need to let go of this guilt about some of my decisions possible affecting others badly, or not pleasing all other parties, or not wasting people's time. Its my life and I'm aiming for the best-feeling outcome I can, and that's all I can do. So I shouldn't be making myself feel so stressed and bad about those things.
Hey man, what I realized a while ago was that if my actions don't kill, physically harm, emotionally scar or traumatize, take something from or hinder another person's goals, then there's no reason I shouldn't be 100% ok with doing it.
Even a kid will get sad if his parent tells him he can't go out to play till he finishes his homework, or that he has to eat his vegetables instead of ice cream everyday, but if the parents gave in to all the immature drama, not only would the kids turn out unhealthy, but the parents would too.
I'm not saying you treat other people like kids btw, it's just an analogy. Hope this helps.
