Quotes on making wise decisions
One valuable life lesson which I have learned is knowing how to make wise decisions. We are where we are in our lives is because of the decisions we have made.
The Power Of Decision Making
Each choice we make will take us down a different path. So making wise decisions is crucial in life. As they say, for one to make a wise decision, one needs to know as much about oneself as possible; your values and objectives.
The most powerful way to change one’s life is the decision to take action. When you take action, you are setting a direction that will lead you to your ultimate destination; your destiny.
In other words, if you want to make changes to your life, you have to control of your consistent actions. The key word is consistent. You have to do it consistently. It is a powerful tool you can use to change your entire life.
As I have just mentioned above, it begins with your decision. As what Anthony Robbins in his best-seller “Awaken The Giant Within: How To Take Immediate Control of Your Mental Emotional, Physical & Financial Destiny“, he says: “It is in your moment of decision that your destiny is shaped.”
