Being Bold With Your Decisions

We make thousands of decisions every day. Many are easy, but others are complex, stressful, or both.  Making choices and decisions is a part of life. Simply put, the way life unfolds—with its twists and turns, starts and stops—requires us to make choices and decisions every step of the way. So, I find it fascinating and somewhat baffling that by the time young people have reached adulthood, many have not mastered the art of decision-making. In fact, many people dread change because this means they will have to contemplate something different from what they’re used to and maybe even be required to make a change.
Because there are so many decisions and because they are literal forks in the road with a dramatic impact on results, costs, time, feelings, and relationships, how you make decisions is extremely important. This is why decision-making is a top priority when I work with clients to create a culture of clarity.

“Learning how to make good decisions is an essential life skill; not just for achieving outward success, but in order to secure a lasting sense of personal fulfillment.

This very essential life skill should be taught from very early on since decision-making takes years of practice to master. Learning how to make good choices and wise decisions depend upon several factors: a person’s developmental stage/age, having a general idea of right and wrong (and I mean this in the broadest moral sense since individuals may acquire their own idea of what is right and wrong for them personally as they mature), understanding what the decision-making process entails, and practice! 

In this episode, we’ll discuss why great leaders learn to make bold decisions even in the midst of fear, why it’s import and steps to help make your decision-making process more bold!  Scott even discusses a huge life decision that shaped is life trajectory that not all of his friends and family understood.
