Miss Quickie

How important is it to make a decision in life-whether it's at work, in love, in politics, or just in everyday living?

It matters because the moment you decide, you turn an idea into action-for better or for worse. And right there, your choice becomes either a smart move or a mistake. That's why, when you're about to make a big decision, you should talk it through, sit with it, and-if needed-do your homework, because those choices can be life-or-death. But one thing is always true: if you choose wrong, you learn, you gain experience, and you're less likely to repeat the same mistake. And if you choose right-really right-you gain confidence for the next decision.

For that same reason, we don't want a narcissistic ruler dressed up like a hero. We want a leader who practices fair politics, promotes peace, keeps good relationships with every country, and earns the respect of the people-because in the end, we're all family on this planet. And that doesn't make you weak. Quite the opposite: it shows strength and real human greatness. Weak people blow up at the first little thing; they get mad, they lose control. That's why it's better to have self-control-to stay steady-so you can move through life with a clear head.
