Consider the following questions. Write down your answers for future reference.
♦ Can you think of a conflict you have (or had) in your life that seems to result from a wrong decision?
♦ How was that decision made? Did you consciously weighted the pros & cons of each alternative?
♦ Were you (at the time of the decision) conscious of and willing to pay the price (face the possible adverse outcomes) of your decision?
♦ Did you somehow hoped to gain the advantage without accepting the possible disadvantages of your choice?
