5 ELEMENTS THAT MAKE UP A
DECISION digitalbloggers.com/pedrocampos
BELIEFS In his book, "Awaken The Giant Within", Tony Robbins describes that beliefs shape our lives. The feeling of certainty about something leads us to make a decision, based on pleasure or pain. Let`s see an example: John feels sick by drinking too much alcohol, therefore he will establish a connection with pain to the experience that can condition his decisions in the future.
CONTROL YOUR RULES Create events in your life to help you feel pleasure rather than pain. Examples could be, reading a book, eating healthy or helping someone. A bad rule is to provide help and expect appreciation from others. Keep in mind that your rules are a vehicle for your decisions, but decisions are not determined by your conditions.
VALUES As Tony states, determining your values is essential for making better decisions. Making decisions that are not aligned with your values is only gonna bring you pain and I was an example of that. Write down your top 3 values and see if you are deciding based on those values, that will help you clarify your position in life and you`ll also understand the changes that need to occur in the future.
REFERENCES Want to make better decisions? Expand your references, the more references you have the more opportunities you will assess. References include the 5 senses and the way you stimulate them will help you get a better understanding of the solutions for your problems.
EMOTIONAL STATES We make decisions based on our attitude, what we focus on is what we get and our focus should not be on things we can't control. Control your attitude by making decisions based on resourceful states. Don`t close a deal when you feel angry, hungry, sad or frustrated, that will, certainly not help you.
IF YOU BELIEVE THAT FREEDOM IS ONE OF YOUR VALUES AND IT BRINGS HAPPINESS TO YOUR LIFE, SMILE TO THE FREEDOM LIFESTYLE AND START MAKING BETTER DECISIONS.
