Decisions
.
The quality of your life is not the result of your conditions,it’s the result of your decisions. Your destiny is actually shaped at the moment of any decision.
In my eBook “Newbies Guide To Internet Marketing“, “Decisions” is the very first point of discussion that I address. I start with decisions because they are the most vital,, and your ability to make “true” and solid decisions will affect everything in your life, regardless of the issue at hand.
We make decisions hundreds of times a day,both small or great, and the results of those decisions subsequently shapes our entire lives.
Importance Of Decisions
Since we make decisions so often it’s easy sometimes to overlook the importance them. And, oftentimes we don’t recognize that we made a bad decision until we encounter unwanted consequences. But in all fairness to the truth, many times we knowingly make bad decisions.
Decisions are powerful, and your ability to make true decisions gives you the power to do virtually anything you want in life. Why? Again, it’s because our destiny is shaped in the moment of decision making. The “result” of every decision determines the quality of our lives in every area.
What Is A True Decision
Truly Decide
We make hundreds, or even thousands of decisions a day without giving it a second thought. “what am I going to eat?”, “What will I wear?” “What TV show do I want to watch?”…. and so on. Some might consider these small decisions, but even a small decision can change the path or course of your life.
And what about obvious big decisions? The ones that truly set our path in life;college, marriage, career choice? Every action we take is preceded by a decision which sets in motion a cause and effect. An effect which produces a result. Are your decisions producing the results you want?
So how do we consistently make great decisions which produce positive results? By being aware of how we make those important decisions.
Exercise your decision making muscles by making decisions which have an attachment of commitment backing them.
- A true decision is one in which you are totally committed to achieving.
- A true decision is not a “need”, it is a “must”.
- A true decision is not casual or diluted down with an ‘out clause’
A decision is a choice, and because we choose so often on a daily basis we tend to become numb to the importance of our choices.
Here is a common scenario:
You “decide” that you want to get in shape so you plan to join a gym or fitness center. It’s October but you’ll begin in January because it will be the new year and a great time to start. Good idea right? January arrives and since you’ve been talking so much about how much you “need” to get in shape you sign up and join the gym.
You’re excited to get started so you begin by working out several days a week. Your body gets a little sore, you don’t see, or get, the results you hoped for and it becomes difficult to find the time to work out, or so it seems.
It’s only been three weeks but hey,,, this isn’t working, besides, I just don’t have the time.
So did you make a true decision in the first place, or did you find a reason to make an excuse in order to justify quitting? Many times we discover excuses because we find out that the very thing we want is going to require……..work.
Apply this scenario to any area of your life, physical, emotional, mental, spiritual or financial… doesn’t matter. Your end goal isn’t the issue, the only issue is that you make a true decision backed by a serious level of commitment.
Every good thing is going to require a TRUE decision supported by unyielding determination. Your commitment to your decision is further supported by your actions, which is what I will cover next.
