When the human mind is in doubt, it is most easily swayed by the slightest of impulses. This opens the door to many wrong decisions. Often, wrong decisions allow things to go from 'bad to worse'. Indecision is deadly. The truth is that the most dangerous place to be, is in the middle of the road. A double-minded person is unstable in all his/her ways. An 'indecisive' person allows 'instability' to creep into every sphere of his/her life. If we don't decide what is important in our own lives, we will probably end up doing only the things that are 'important to others'. "The greater the degree of wishful thinking; the greater is the degree of mediocrity!" Being 'decisive' and 'focused' and committing ourselves to the fulfillment of our dream, immensely enhances our probability of 'success'. It also closes the door to 'wrong' options.

The challenge for all of us is to 'dedicated' dreamers OR more appropriately, 'decisive' dreamers. Harry Truman once said: "Some questions cannot be answered, but they can be decided." Often, you & I may not have all the facts available about a particular given situation, but we will usually have all the facts we need, to make a 'decision'.

"If the DEVIL controls our will, HE controls our destiny. But if GOD controls our will, HE controls our destiny!". The choice is ours to make. So let's be decisive. Let's make the right decision & make this world a 'meaningful & beautiful' place to dwell in....!:smile:
