What is a “Decision”?
“At the moment of every day I must decide what I am going to do the next moment; and no one can make this decision for me, or take my place in this.” — José Ortega y Gasset, philosopher and essayist
Key Points:
- A Decision is the act of committing to a specific plan of action.
- If you’re not cutting off viable options, you are not making a decision.
- No Decision is ever made with complete information. Lack of information shouldn’t prevent your from deciding, the world is too complex to make accurate predictions.
- Failure to make a Decision is itself a Decision. Life doesn’t stop if you refuse to choose.
- For best results, be clear and conscious when making a decision.
Questions for Consideration:
- Are you resisting making a clear choice to take a certain action?
- Where is the resistance coming from, and how can you come to a clear decision quickly, based on available information?
