[MysteRy]

[highlight-text]When confronted with two courses of action I jot down on a piece of paper all the arguments in favor of each one then on the opposite side I write the arguments against each one. Then by weighing the arguments pro and con and cancelling them out one against the other I take the course indicated by what remains.

Benjamin Franklin

[MysteRy]

[highlight-text]Continually one faces the horrible matter of making decisions. The solution ... is as far as possible to avoid conscious rational decisions and choices; simply to do what you find yourself doing; to float in the great current of life with as little friction as possible; to allow things to settle themselves as indeed they do with the most infallible certainty.

Christopher Morley

[MysteRy]

[highlight-text]Not all of your decisions will be correct. None of us is perfect. But if you get into the habit of making decisions experience will develop your judgment to a point where more and more of your decisions will be right. After all it is better to be right 51 percent of the time and get something done than it is to get nothing done because you fear to reach a decision.

H. W. Andrews

[MysteRy]

[highlight-text]When making a decision of minor importance I have always found it advantageous to consider all the pros and cons. In vital matters however such as the choice of a mate or a profession the decision should come from the unconscious from somewhere within ourselves. In the important decisions of personal life we should be governed I think by the deep inner needs of our nature.
