Two thoughts:
-randomness: if the future is not determined it is completely unpredictable, in other words, it is random. Wouldn't the universe be a strange place if your decisions have a strong component of randomness? Perhaps in the next hour you would decide to take all the paper in your office and fold it into tiny boxes...
-Danger: since the future is already determined I can as well sit back and relax and don't worry. Don't fall into this trap.
Completely determined or completely random is a false dichotomy.
