Intrinsic Power Of Decisions....i-POD

    Here or there?he or she?this or that? These are questions we ask ourself every day and make decisions on which to go for based on priority,preference and others.


Decision is very powerful as it is the bedrock of goal setting and achieving.You need to make a decision so as to have an idea where you are heading.
    
    Nations and people have fallen because of wrong decisions made in the past,you have to realize how transforming the decisions you make could be:Decisions can make a humble person proud,a rich man a beggar,a wise man a fool,a poor man rich,the list is endless.


Furthermore,two basic things affect our decisions.
(1) Emotion: Emotion is a state of mind based on an individuals interaction with the external environment.There could be a positive or negative emotion,either of which can affect our decision.

No mater what the choice might be,always make your decisions based on intelligence,not emotion.Emotion is only a visitor to the mind,and fades with time.
Exercise your ability to say "NO" to somethings based on decision making:Saying "NO" doesn't make you weak,it most times means you are strong enough to hold on to your priorities.

#don't make a PERMANENT decision (that will affect you later in life),based on a TEMPORARY emotion#

(2) Peer pressure: Friends and associates can influence your decision making greatly,either for good or bad.When left to choose between this two,you have to realize that at the end it all comes down to what you want.
You need to realize that you have mans greatest gift,which is the gift of CHOICE.
Never let anyone that will not share the consequences influence you into making the wrong decisions.These people you see around you,10 years from now,most of them wont be around you and you will have to suffer the consequences alone.

                                          Making Right Decisions
    

In making decisions we could also use the DECISION MAKING QUADRANT with four point questions:
What will happen if i do?
What will happen if i don't?
What wont happen if i do?
What wont happen if i don't?

Answer these questions and decide from your answers,base on ethical reasoning.



No mater what you do,always realize that,the DECISIONS you make,makes you.
