Diciples
of Jesus and Mary Youth
-
Decision
Making Process
- Make
two lists. First list consists of "things
that you have to do" and the second list "things
that you want to do."
- Now
arrange these two lists starting with the
easiest and most inexpensive.
- At
the beginning do only one think from each
list every day.
- These
lists will certainly change, you may add or
delete as time goes by.
- Whatever
task or project you start you must complete.
- This
process builds on one success at a time.
- The
reason for doing things that you want to do
is make you excited about doing things.
- Usually
when you are excited about some thing there
is a greater chance that you will do it.
- Add
fun to the things you have to do and you will
enjoy doing it. And you will find time to
do it.
- Try
not to do too many things during the first
month.
- Even
though you feel comfortable try not to overdo
anything.
- Many
people are afraid of failure and because of
it will hesitate, delay, and in the end never
make a decision.
- If
you do not decide, then someone else will
have to make it for you.
- Or
you will be forced to make hurried decisions,
which always prove expensive in long run.
- You
may ask others for opinions and suggestions.
Never let anyone make decisions for you.
- Making
decisions takes courage and confidence in
oneself.
- Pray
to the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit to
guide you in your faith.
- Hurt
and painful experiences are some of the causes
that keep some from making decisions.
- Many
have a poor self-esteem because of their past
experiences.
- If
you lack confidence or find it difficult to
forgive anyone for any reason, spend time
before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.
If
you have any comments or questions please
