A wise man makes his own decisions, an
ignorant man follows public opinion. |
Chinese proverb |
|
Whenever you see a
successful business,
someone once made a
courageous decision. |
Peter Drucker |
|
Decide what you want, decide what you are
willing to exchange for it. Establish your priorities and go to work. |
H.L. Hunt |
|
Be willing to make decisions. That's the
most important quality in a
good leader.
|
George S. Patton |
|
Decision is a sharp knife that cuts clean
and straight; indecision, a dull one that hacks and tears and leaves
ragged edges behind it. |
Gordon Graham |
|
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. |
Sigmund Freud |
|
The most difficult thing is the decision
to act,
the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do
anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control
your life; and the procedure, the
process is its own reward.
|
Amelia Earhart |
|
Whenever you're called on to make up your mind,
And you're hampered by not having any,
The simplest way to solve the dilemma you'll find,
Is simply by flipping a penny.
No, not so that chance shall decide the affair,
As you're passively standing there moping.
But as soon as the penny is up in the air,
You'll suddenly know what you are hoping. |
Piet Hein |
|
I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my
decisions.
|
Stephen R. Covey |
|
When, against one’s will, one is high
pressured into making a hurried decision, the best answer is always No,
because No is more easily changed to Yes, than Yes is changed to No..
|
Charles E. Nielson |
|
The man who insists upon seeing
with perfect clearness before he decides, never decides.
|
Henri Frederic Amiel |
|
Quick decisions are unsafe decisions. |
Sophocles |
|
The percentage of mistakes in quick
decisions is no greater than in long-drawn-out vacillations, and the
effect of decisiveness itself makes things go and creates
confidence.
|
Anne O’Hare McCormick |
|
For
making better decisions, don't assume that extreme outcomes
are as likely as they first seem.
|
Stephen Kraus |
|
Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen. |
Ralph Waldo Emerson |
|
Never cut a tree down in the wintertime.
Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most
important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient.
The storm will pass. The spring will come. |
Robert H. Schuller |
