How to become more decisive immediately in your very next decision

Samphy Y — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 04:03:17 PST

It involves taking risk of making mistakes because you know that clarity comes only when you actually decide and do it. Decisive people take responsibility for the outcome of their decision. They don’t regret nor [...]

I was driving to lunch with my wife during lunch break on a Friday when I suddenly said to my wife, “Honey, let’s play a “no blame” game for seven days starting from now.” It came out of my subconscious mind. Perhaps I became tired of blaming and of hearing it. Or for other reasons. [...]

We all know that when we let go, we will have peace. The more we can let go, the greater peace we enjoy. You may also agree. (That’s probably why you found this post of mine. ) But why do we hold on (to past mistakes, to broken relationship, to bitter past events, to guilt, [...]

It’s interesting to observe how S.M.A.R.T goal setting has been a popular approach for individuals and organisations. I myself was one of them.
