Do you know what separates those who make things happen and those who have things happen to them? Or why some people make waves and others fall as victims on the roadside? The difference lies in one’s ability to decide with conviction.

How do you feel when presented with options? Do you feel good? Wishy washy? Pathetic? Indifferent?

Your decision making process determines how much you influence the world.

Those with low self-esteem distrust their own judgement. It’s easy to get over this, nonetheless. Simply use the IDA strategy whenever you feel uncertain. Here’s the trick:

Intention -> Decision -> Action.

The confused can’t act if they can’t decide to act, and they can’t decide unless they know what they intend to happen.

Discover your intention by asking, “What do I want to happen?” Then decide how you need to change your behavior. From there, modify your behavior by acting differently.

Make this your goal for today. When you know what you want, you WILL make things happen.
