Just Make A Decision

Sometimes I can be indecisive as an individual. I will never forget the countless conversations I have had with my dad. Typically it would unfold like this; "Son, where would you like to eat? 'I don't care." And our conversation would go back and forth until we ended up at the Golden Corral were there would be unlimited options for one who could not even decide what to eat in the first place.

Early last fall I heard it said, "people want leaders to make decisions and even if it turns out to be the wrong decision at least you made a decision." Essentially the point being is leaders make decisions. Leaders will make right decisions and wrong decisions. Everyone will make decisions and we pray we make more right decisions than wrong ones.

Decision PointsAs a leader this point has been on my mind lately after finishing Decision Points by George W. Bush. This is a great book and I would recommend to those who are leaders in any position.

Many times we need to carefully make decisions by seeking Godly counsel, praying, and waiting for clarity through the Spirit to give peace.

However, there are many times when you just need to make a decision so you don't end up at Golden Corral with tons of decisions to make.

  1. Sounds like a good book. And I can see the fact that people jsut want leaders to make decisions...no matter if they are good or bad.
