Weakness is Death...

Your inability to make a choice during the time of crisis, in a reasonable time frame, is the greatest weakness of all.

During a predicament, How should decisions be made ? Should it be conative or cognitive?
History suggests, a cognitive decision- though receive brickbats initially- has the power to bring in favourable changes. The revival of corporate behemoths - you name it - be it IBM, Daimler Chrysler made radical decisions which helped to reinvent themselves and made the turnaround possible.

When it comes to personal life, the female species are emotionally strong and make radical decisions during the time of crisis. Men make ambiguous statements which mirror their state of mind and would try avoiding/postponing the decision making process which only deteriorates the condition of problem and enhance the number of constraints.

Taking a leaf out of my book, I believe this inability is a critical factor that makes the bond of personal relationships weaker. Repenting on the inane inability to make quicker decisions and being apologetic for the missed opportunities and failing to capitalize on the strength of a relationship are not uncommon outcomes of this inability.

Structured thought process, unambiguous communication, enormous will power, willingness to honor one's commitment and believing in one's self - Come what may - would help an individual evolve a favorable outcome and achieve his objectives. People who made this a habit, are celebrated as HEROES in the pages of history. It need not matter if history does not celebrate you as Hero, you already would have won the hearts of people around you and would be immortal in their hearts.

Be determined, stand up tall and exhibit your good values and beliefs to overcome this weakness of yours for the world might praise you as a HERO. You are no more a coward.
