Let’s make good decisions – how do you do this? But making a plan. First, let’s look at what kind of decisions we make.
- Simple decisions: A color of cup, red or blue, green or yellow. We make so many decisions every single day.
- Moral decisions: Decide not to lie or not to steal.
- Life-changing: A decision that has to do with something with the future of your life.
You really need to understand the basics. Is this decision easy or is it a big one to make that you need to figure out over time?
Let’s look at a decision. Write that down now. What is something that you want to make a decision about? What is the first thing you do? Pray. Pray specifically about what it is your need? And then, do it! For example, if you want to make a decision about whether or not you should play a sport, or play a musical instrument. You can not do anything if you won’t’ make a start.
