On ‘Decision-Making’ : Are You Making Emotional Suicide Decisions or Making Decisions To Be ‘Alive’ Going Forward – A Personal ‘TED Talk’

about me, I feel safe in saying that you are aware of that one thing about me without evening knowing me personally: I’m a VERY shrewd (but fair) person. As well, I am NOT apologetic and wayward about any decision that I make whether it be about friends, relationships or business. I’m shrewd and unapologetic about my decisions–INTRINSICALLY so. So I know I’ll be okay. Even if I know the decision(s) will mean I have to sacrifice something major for it. I know I will be a-okay. I’m on to my personal rebuilding process.

I am a person who has done without.

I am a person who has suffered from sacrifice.

By both circumstance and choice, I’ve downgraded and lived badly/near substandard before.

I’m a person who has lost, been humbled, humiliated, shamed regained, and triumphed-all that.

And because of that, it made me a survivor with a mentality like that of: Predator or Terminators arm, the skill of a carpenter, and a ‘from-scratch’ rebuilder who happens to find joy in reinvention and innovation.

That said, NOTHING (in my adult and ‘decisioned’ mind) holds power over me. So I don’t have a problem with, or feel bad about making decisions that I feel:

  • are best for me (first)
  • the greater good of the situation as a whole
  • and/or all involved

Because when I make decisions for me-I intend on living as a result of them and BEING ALIVE after having made them…and you should too.

Think about that…And always make decisions from an intrinsic place because if you do it from there; living with and being alive from your decisions (and any other thing you do from an intrinsic place) will simply be automatic.download (4)

At any rate.

Obviously there are several ways to go about the decision process but for me-that one I just mentioned in my spiel is the main one that trumps all over reasons for making a decision-it HAS to be first.

I haven’t listened as yet, but I will turn over 3 other videos on decision making from other TED Talks speakers to give your theirs.

Enjoy!
