Decision Making Process

Step One: As clearly as possible, define the decision you are faced with.

Step Two: Consider each possible choice you have for resolving the issue.

Step Three: Gather as much relevant information as time allows, and identify the pros and cons of each of the choices you have to solve your issue.

Step Four: Based on your list of pros and cons, choose the best method for resolving the issue.

Step Five: Construct a plan of action to implement your method (be sure to leave yourself enough flexibility to make adjustments as necessary).

NO PLAGIARISM PLEASE!!!!!! IN YOUR OWN WORDS!!!!!!

Explanation / Answer

I feel I am omniscient - atleast I try to be so that I can view and judge things in an objective and logical manner as much as possible, without letting personal bias cloud my judgement, because I feel everything must be heard out before we come to a conclusion, which I feel again must be fair, and must definitely support the fact, i.e., the truth. I thus try to observe and listen and view things from everybody's perspective and circumstances to come to any kind of conclusion.

I feel I really need to improve upon:

A. Being too nihilistic.

B. My diplomatic skills.

This is how I plan on improving upon these two areas:

A. My Nihilism:

Step One: Everyday I'm faced with the dilemma of living. I mean what's the point? We all will cease to exsist someday, we all will be forgotten someday. A mere mortal dross is all we are. We have been born into this capitalist system, to work for others so that they can drain our labour for cheap in exchange for a few penies which we need to stay alive, and this is a cycle we can never get out of. It is a rich capitalist white man's world, and there is no place for us proletariats, so what is the point?

Step Two: Bring in communism.

Step Three:

Step Four: So all I can do is now get the best out of the system, since it is kind of impossible to humanly beat it, so I have decided to ignore the cycle we're in, even though I am fully aware of how it loots us.

Step Five: I think can make my life a bit more meaningful by engaging frequently in temporary satisfactions of life, ie via food, music, jogs with dogs, swimming, travelling, and by watching films till I too cease to exist someday.

B. My lack of Diplomacy:

Step One: I try my best to be polite, and subtle while dealing with people, but the more you meet the more you realise how much of a nincompoop they can be (I'm trying to keep the language as parliamentary as I can), but I can't help my opinionated-self from speaking my mind out at times when I have been pushed completely to the edge. The problem I face is when I have to decide whether speaking my mind out would be worth hampering an important interpersonal relationship.

Step Two: The choices I have presently to resolve this issue are:

Step Three:

Step Four: I guess I will choose a mix of both the options but primarily the second one (based on the pros and cons of each)

Step Five: I will have to be more subtle in my approach with people, and not sound rude, and make compromises at times, but not too fatal ones, which would make me question the true basis of my being.
