An Easy Decision?
If we look at the etymology of the word decision it means “to cut off”. Sounds painful, doesn’t it? As it should because we all know that a decision has a consequence associated with it, and some can be painful. And as I have often noted our brains are wired for avoidance of pain (number […]

POWER, Actions and Consequences
Do you know what these three words have in common? ANSWER: They were all the result of making a decision. Who among you hasn’t heard at some time in your life that all actions have consequences? My guess is that it is a very high percentage of the population. The consequences can be things like […]
