He that doesn’t know what he wants will have a bucket full of what he doesn’t want.
Decision making skill is a very soft skill and vital for our day to day affairs.
We always need to make good decision at every junction in our lives. e.g choice of career, choice of spouse, choice of school, choice of residence, choice of relationships (friends & acquittance) e.t.c
The common fable of the young boy who never knew what he wanted because he could not decide for himself. He got one square shoe and another round shoe which did not fit him at all.
Most people think that it’s children that lacks the ability and capacity to decide for themselves but we adults too fall into this category sometimes.
The best way to be able to decide for yourself is to know what you want and never allow anyone impose what they want on you. Always have a mind of your own by careful and thoughtful consideration. be quick to reject and refuse what you do not want.
However, this doesn’t overrule the place of seeking advice and guidance lightly from people who know better than you e.g your pastor, your parents, your counsellor e.t.c
In conclusion, wise people decide for themselves, they don’t allow people to impose there ways on them. They have strong willpower and they display it boldly without stubbornness.
