Decision Making

A decision is a choice you make or act

upon. A good decision is a decision in
which you have carefully considered the
outcome of each choice.
To accept personal responsibility
is to accept how your decisions
may affect you and other people.
 Most of the time, we are making
decisions based on our needs and
desires. At the same time it helps
you to resist peer pressure.
