Is making a decision an easy option for you?

Are you worried about making a mistake?

I know that making decisions is the key to progress. I say that because if you are not right and make a mistake this is just a golden opportunity to learn. When you learn you make progress.

One of my favorite bands was ‘The Band’. Rick Danko (1942-1999) was the bass player. He gave the world the following quote about decisions; “Go with your first thoughts; they're usually your best thoughts. Pay attention, stick to your goals and follow those guidelines. It's all right there if you reach for it, unless you want to punch time clocks and work for somebody. That's what we liked about America, the land of opportunity. All your dreams can come true."

What decision can you make today that will move you closer to your dreams?

How long does the window of opportunity stay open?

Are all opportunities always available until we are ready?

I don’t believe they are. The reason I say that is because your time is always limited. Many of the times that window of opportunity is only open briefly. This is because when people present an opportunity to you, they are not going to sit back and wait for only you to make up your mind. That is why it is so important to keep developing and exercising your decision making muscles. So how do you do that?

I recently found a site called Psyblog. This site has a wonderful article called ’13 Ways to Quickly Improve Your Decision Making’. The link follows;
