Making The Right Decisions

Decisions are an important part of our everyday life and they are made countless times a day. A decision is defined as a choice that you make about something after thinking about it: the result of deciding. The keynote here is "after thinking about it". You can not make a decision without thinking thoroughly about it. Depending on the decision you will make, you need to have the discipline to go according to it and the courage to be able to face the consequences that come with it.

Once you make a decision, you cannot blame others for the consequences that follow especially when they are bad. When the consequences are distasteful, it is quite possible for a fully sane human being who is very capable of making decisions to end up blaming another person who might have offered a piece of advice while the one supposed to make the decision was thinking.

A lecturer once said that when a student performs well during an exam and is given a grade such as A or B+, the student praises himself and says "I got a good grade" but once he is given a grade such as D+ or less, he immediately blames the lecturer and says "They gave me a bad grade". The choice to attend lectures and study or not study and fail was placed before you and you chose what suited you best so do not go about blaming others for something that could have been avoided.

Though circumstances might play a part in the decision making, it should not define what you choose to do or who you should be. Sometimes decisions are influenced by acquaintances or people who have a major hold in your life but one thing to keep in mind is that your decisions are not meant to please other people since no matter how many decisions you make in favour of them, people will never be satisfied.

Make a decision because it is the right thing to do not because you want to please others. The only person you should bother about pleasing is God and not a friend you met in school or on social media.
