TIPS DECIDING ON CHOICES



CHOICES IN LIFE

Life has no rules.  Life is not a rehearsal.  Life is hard work.  Life may not be as easy as we think.  It can be complicated and a bitter journey or it can be a happy rewarding journey with simple answers.  Life is what we make it.
Life is a series of choices that lead us to our destiny.  The choices in life will make life what it is.  To be successful and happy, we have to make the right choices.  Every day and every minute we have choices to make, even if they’re not to make any choices and to do nothing.  Think about the impact your choices.
When we are young and starting out in life, none of us have all the answers we need.  As we get older and are doing more with our lives, we are still looking for answers.  It can take a lifetime of learning and experiences to learn what we need to know.
TIPS DECIDING ON CHOICES
1.         Assess what you want from life.
2.         Knowing what you wish to achieve.
3.         Gain input from others on ethical issues.
4.         Ask a person whose input matters most.
5.         Analyze the consequences.
6.         Analyze the actions and how they measure up to principles of respect, dignity and honesty.
7.         Use the "five whys" method. Ask "why" five times to get to the internal cause before deciding
8.         Make choices from love and respect.
9.         Remove negative biases when making choices.
10.       Recognize that the right choice is not always the most obvious.
 
QUOTES FROM DR. SHAD HELMSTETTER’S BOOK TITLED “CHOICES.”:
1.         No one else can ever make your choices for you. Your choices are yours alone. They are as much a part of you as every breath you will take, every moment of your life.
2.         You may think that in life, a lot of things happen to you along the way. The truth is, in life, you happen to a lot of things along the way.
3.         If you’d like to know what your choices have been, look at yourself and the life you have lived. What you see is the choices you’ve made.
4.         You cannot manage your life if you do not manage your self. You cannot manage your self if you do not manage your choices. Manage your choices, and you will manage your life.
5.         The end result of your life here on earth will always be the sum total of the choices you made while you were here.
