Mind Blowing Decisions

Happy Tuesday. Happy Choose Day. The rain finally broke here in Chicago, and we got a bit of sunshine. Climate change is no joke. Police brutality is no joke. Cancel culture is no joke. Societal norms really let you know the importance of decision making. It seems as though people are shifting the focus from the misery that's going on in their lives. They project their internal weaknesses and try to blame someone else for any opinion expressed or any thought offered. The "climate" is most vicious on social media where people don't even know each other. Literally, they try to rip each other's throats out based on a comment, like or share. Just by any means necessary. Makes you wonder what happened in their life that they are so bitter. What are they trying to cover up by being so hateful to someone else? It comes down to the basics of decision making. Life happens. Things are going on in this world, during this pandemic, that no one could have ever seen. However, we have to deal with it. We have to shelter in place. We have to quarantine. We have to do what's best not only for our health but for our well being. Some people have decided that they're not going to deal with reality. They would rather protest, point fingers and draw lines. Folks want to be argumentative about policies, procedures, anything in life. Rather than addressing the elephant in the room, people are dying in their ignorance. This is a life or death decision that you're actually making. And if you fail to make a decision, that's a decision. So I ask you, What is your decision making process? Are you looking at things as being half full? Are you looking at things as being half empty? Do you have a worst case scenario? Or are you trying to optimize your outcome? It really is quite the notion because sometimes we have to do the deed in order to get the results. If they could hit the lottery, most people would never work again. .. especially if those monies would last them for the rest of their lives. However, even the rich will tell you that every day is a process. Every day you want to make more money. Not everyone can be Elon Musk, where you can get 36 billion in a day and your company worth a trillion. But who knows what he went through to get to that level of financial independence. If blessed with the same story, would we have the same outcome? It really goes to the decisions you make. Do you take advantage and take the bull by the horns? Or do you just allow life to run you over? Most entrepreneurs will tell you that after working or seeing others working in the corporate environment, they just had to do their own entity. They had to branch out. They had to break forth. They had to hustle to get to the point where they are. There may have been some lean years where they had to sell everything or declare bankruptcy. But then there are some powerful years where they are on top of the world, getting everything in life that they could ever want and dream of. Most people earn more money later in life.  Usually, the money grows in time. And as that money grows and the maturity comes through, they make better decisions. Life will teach you tough lessons if you live long enough. The decisions you make add to the stature of your life which adds to the circumstance of your existence. So what are you doing to make your decisions? Are you making decisions based on the good? Are you making decisions based on the bad? Are you making the decisions based on your future? Are you making decisions on what happened in your past? Share your comments below. Thank you for reading this article and supporting this blog space. Stay safe, masked and healthy.
