Have you ever had one person’s life be in your hands? Have you had the opportunity to save someone? I did - in “The Captain”, every decision you make has an effect on the outcome. It’s just like real life, really. So think before you act, or you might kill someone - perhaps even accidentally.

With so much talk about Decision Making and specialists (?) who advise and conduct seminars , I though about this a bit.

Quote on Choice.

An infant looks to its Mother for any support.

Infants just follow you right from stepping aside to walking, eating.

It decides to follow some of your mannerism(those with whom it spends most of its time).

Till some time.

One falls in Love.

And one does not like somebody.

One likes some things in Life, be it food or dress.

Except in few a cases they are all learned and the decision taken by others whom one learns from, are copied.

Most of the time in Life we react, are not proactive.

We become proactive when we are not personally involved.

When there are multiple choices available for a problem, most of the time, we are aware of only some alternatives, not all of them.

That is why the persons who speak about decision-making state carefully one should take decisions with the available data.

The fact that the choice themselves are limited ensures that the decisions you take are not totally free.

Please read my post ‘Choice’

There is this aspect of gut instinct.

Decision based on this normally does not disappoint you.

How and Why?

I have noticed decision-making in personal lives.

You like to buy a car, love a girl or Boy,want to go abroad.

In the last one,here is some deliberation.

In all others, you have already decided to your course of action.

But you want to justify it , to others as much as to yourself.

Reasoning, to me seems to be, an explanation not the Cause.

Lord Krishna explains this Gunathraya Vibhagayoga in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 14.

“

On hind sight I wish I could have taken them.

The cost?

I do not know.

But what forced me to choose one in place of another, may be circumstances, but still?

I had chosen what I thought I liked.

In retrospect, I find it could have been otherwise.

May be after couple of years or even a days later I might find my present choice mentioned here are incorrect!”

Why vacation is good, even for your President

What makes a leader great? There seems to be consensus that some of the most important traits are focus, perseverance, assertiveness, integrity, dedication, humility, creativity, and a sense of humor. The core responsibility of a President, business leader, entrepreneur or anyone else with huge influence and power is to make the right decisions. Decisions based on wisdom, humanity, personal maturity, a flexible and creative mind, and an open and strong heart.

Last year, there was much debate about Obama taking a vacation with his family during the fiscal crisis. While many people argued against Obama being away from the office amidst difficult times, however we believe that Obama’s leadership skills were obvious in this situation. His dedication to his family showed that he is not only a powerful and important person, but also the father of two young girls. Since Obama values family time, and stands true to his values, is it any wonder he didn’t give up his yearly planned family vacation?

Obama’s job is to make big decisions. He has a lot of clever people to gather all the facts, lay out the alternatives and expected implications, and feed him with information and opinions. He also has an abundance of staff and administrators to carry out the decisions he makes. When is Obama best at making those important decisions? When are you best at making the essential decisions in your life and career? If you are like most people, it will be when you have had a good night’s sleep, when you exercise regularly, eat a healthy diet, feel in control of the things that are most important to you and are content with yourself in all aspects of your life.

Obama might have a high working capacity, be very disciplined and be more intelligent than most people. However, at the core he is just a human being. Take away his sleep, his exercise, his time with his family – and just like you and I, he will gradually turn into a stressed out, unhappy, short tempered person. When a President makes decisions about serious matters like economic recovery, healthcare reform and foreign policy, I for one, would truly like him or her to be feeling a lot better than that.

Have you thought about when you get your best ideas and feel the most clear-sighted and creative? For many people, myself included, the answer is on or right after a vacation. Are you most productive a Monday after a great weekend, or a Friday after a stressed out week? I think the answer is obvious, and if we stop for a minute to think about it, I believe most of us will agree that all human beings need breaks to continue to perform their best.

In psychology it is called incubation, the period when your mind takes a break from the problem you are working on. It also occurs in your sleep while you are dreaming. This incubation period is considered to increase creativity and facilitate the problem-solving process. Without it your brain simply cannot perform at its best.

Even the world’s best marathon runner adheres to this principle: they run a marathon, and then they take a break. Without the break their bodies will deteriorate. Without down time for Obama, his mind, morality and wisdom will be compromised. No one is above this law of nature.

There is also another lesson here. It’s about whether the ends justify the means. Imagine a dilemma known from many Hollywood movies: If you can find a cure for cancer and save 1 million people, would it be ok to sacrifice 100 people against their will in the necessary tests? However painful it is to realize, we know that the answer to this question is no. If we start sacrificing innocent people no matter how important an end it serves, we lose something that is even more important - our humanity, and then everybody eventually loses.

So when we are asking Obama to sacrifice his children’s well being because he has important work to do, we better think twice. We will be one step closer to a world where the ends justify the means, and who wants to live in a world like that?

You might say, especially if you don't’ have kids of your own, that a vacation is really not that big a deal for Obama’s children, or that their mother can take care of them. However, today we know that when children feel neglected by their parents it nearly always results in some level of tragedy. Research shows that children who have experienced neglect can often lead to negative effects on health and intellectual and cognitive development. Children with highly involved parents tend to have fewer behavioural problems, higher educational achievement, higher self-esteem and life satisfaction – among many other benefits.

It has already been proven how important the rest period is for our productivity. Still many of us find it challenging to take a step back when important decisions need to be made. Perhaps we feel like we are giving up our control. Well, on the contrary, it allows us to actually see the bigger picture, gather our thoughts and make wiser decisions. At the same time, our kids get this vital time with their parents. Obama might not be everyone’s role model - and probably far from the ideal when it comes to work/life balance – but when he protects his time with his children he shows both integrity and wisdom.

Yoking Vision and Action to Reap Success!

“In general, people really want challenge and want to be a part of something that has meaning, this gives a sense of accomplishment that is both empowering and fulfilling.

When you create a vision that is compelling, it helps to establish the discipline for what has to be done in the short term, ultimately yoking the vision and the action is the ingredient for a hot commodity.

Create your compelling picture to align your steps and success will no longer be a distant vision but instead the reward of a dream, alive—”
