The Consequences of Your Decisions

-
Hello friends, happy new month! I am glad to come your way again and thank you for visiting my blog.
Today, we are going to be looking at the consequences of decisions.

consequences of decisions


Every day decisions are being made at individual level, family level, group level, corporate level; managerial etc. Your decisions could be major decisions or minor decisions but one thing is common between the two; they both have consequences. 

The decisions you made yesterday, is what is playing out in your life and your space today. It is often said, you cannot change your past but you can plan your future by the decisions you make today. 
For example; if you keep making decisions to shut out people completely from your life, you will end up a lonely person in no time.

If you think you have no decision to make concerning your life, you have just decided to fail. So, it is obvious that decisions can be made knowingly and unknowingly. For some people they only get to realize the decisions they made when the consequences start staring at them. 
Taking charge of the driver's seat of your destiny is key to making deliberate, intelligent and strategic decisions that will birth your desired future. 

Points to Note 
1. Be intentional - This will keep you focus and help you find your bearing in life.
2. Be futuristic - Envision the future and keep a mental picture of it always.
3. Be Bold - Take the steps required to set plans and goals in place and endeavour to carry through with all plans.
4. Be Flexible - Your decisions shouldn't be static. Be ready to make adjustments as the need arises, having in mind that we live in a world that is dynamic. 
5. Be Knowledgeable  - Research out information on the type of future you desire or the vision your are pursuing.  A wise man will always stay ahead of others because of what he knows and most importantly when he applies the knowledge he has. 
6. Be Sensitive - As regard our subject for today, sensitivity is important because this will help you discover the areas of your life that are major and will require major decisions to grow those areas and the minor areas that will require less effort. In other words; Your Strength and Your Weakness.
The 80/20 rule teaches us that 20 percent of your activities will account for 80 percent of your results.

The above points to note are all a decision away, if you decide to make a difference. 

Successful people didn't stumble into success

Men that are making great impacts today didn't stumble into where they are today; 
-  They decided to do something different from every other people. 
- They decided to give it their 100 percent attention and avoided short cuts.
-  They decided to plant seeds they knew will yield the harvest they wanted.
-  They decided to find their areas of strength and not imitate people around them
-  They decided to do away with excuses so as to reach their goals. 

Decisions have consequences; good decisions will birth good consequences and bad decisions will birth bad consequences.  

If you have decided to wait all your life on people that are not forthcoming  with their promises to you, then you have decided to halt your life. Rise up, take responsibility and take charge of your life. God created you and gave you the power to decide the best for your life. 

Learn to make intelligent and smart decisions  today and you will be amazed at the outcome of those decisions.

Steps to Making Good Decisions:
1. Know Who you are
2. Know what you want
3. Know why you are here on earth
4. Know the people you are sent to 
When there is a knowing, your steps become deliberate and the results of your decisions are patterned in accordance with your expectations.  

Decide to live life internationally, and make wise / smart decisions for bountiful harvest. Your decisions today are your harvest tomorrow.

The Iceberg Model: A Systems Thinking Tool

-
Hello my Trendsetting Teens, Today, we want to use this model to explain Systems Thinking as a tool to solve problems and receive desired outcomes. Imagine an iceberg, where: Above the waterline (Visible): Events : The tip of the iceberg, representing individual incidents or symptoms (e.g., a conflict, a problem, or an issue). Below the waterline (Hidden): Patterns : The layer beneath events, revealing recurring themes, cycles, or relationships (e.g., communication breakdowns, power struggles). Structures : The underlying framework, including rules, roles, and processes that shape the system (e.g., organizational design, social norms). Mental Models : The deepest layer, comprising assumptions, beliefs, and values that influence our perceptions and actions (e.g., biases, worldviews). Systems Thinking Connection: Events are symptoms of underlying patterns, structures, and mental models. Addressing only events (the tip) won't solve the problem; we must explore and understand the hidde

DON'T DWELL, POUNCE

 Hi Friend, It is almost getting to the end of a season called 2023 and many are currently taking stock of how the year went. For some, they had many wins, they celebrated, while others, are in a state of gloominess over too many losses they think they recorded. I am sorry to hear that you didn't close the deal, buy the house, get to make the changes and change the trajectory of your life within the time frame you set for yourself but have you ever stop to think that it is not over until it is over? They could be many reasons why it didn't work as planned and you have two options to consider; 1. To either look into the origin of the issue so you can resolve it, learn from it so you can proceed with caution, and instruct others  2. Alternatively, you can choose to reside in a temporary dwelling of self-pity and indulge in sorrow over your losses.  Having a RESPONSE ready is essential for handling life's inevitable challenges. 'But how can I do that?' I can hear you s
