I don't know that they ever taught decision making in school, but it should be a required class for every incoming college freshman, that's for sure. I’ll be looking forward to it, Rachel.

It reminds me of the "Freedom or Death on a Decision" story in Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill--said to be the greatest decision of all time. This was in in Philadelphia, July 4, 1776 (we all know this date) when 56 men signed their names to a document which they were well aware would bring freedom to all Americans--or leave every one of the 56 hanging from a gallows! No pressure there. It is unfortunate that a skill as important as decision-making, is not taught in every school. And that fact that it is absent from most of the corporate training and human resource programs available is also a tragedy. You just gave me an idea for my blog (I will link/track back to this post). Enjoyed this post.
