(Principles are basic truths that, when applied, cause success to come to you easier and quicker.)


A recent situation brought this Principle to the surface. When confronted with a fork in the road and with each road leading to unknowns and possible painful consequences, along with possible wonderful outcomes, there was a bit of frozen behavior.

Which way to go? Have I missed any factors? Have I thought through everything? Can I ‘afford’ to make a ‘wrong’ decision? Who else will be affected by my decision? What if I don’t decide, do nothing?

Questions like these surface during many decisions. You can probably think of several others you have dealt with recently. It can be easy to get stuck in your head, thinking everything through.

But sometimes it’s best to just decide and take an action.


Coaching Point: Any pending decisions you really ought to go ahead and make?
