Decisions


Everyday we are surrounded with choices and decisions that affect our immediate lives. Things that influence us the most would be our environments as well as the people we are surrounded by. I think that everyone has had to make a big decision in their life, one that can alter their pathway forever and affect the impact they want to have on the world.

Going into college, deciding which college to attend and what you want to major in are all very stressful choices that have to be made in a short period of time. How does an 18 year old kid know what they want to do for the rest of their life? The decisions we make now affect our long term future, whether we see our family and friends as often, or whether we choose to see them because we're not going to college to far. Whether or not to get into trouble and fail out of school and waste you or your parents money, they are all decisions.


We learn in life that taking risks and making the "correct" decisions will lead to satisfaction, but do the little choices we make along the way seriously alter our journey?
Life is made up with a series of problems, and to determine one's path is how one can figure out the solution. Everyone has a unique answer to the question of who do I want to be and what impact do I want to have on the world. Each life is individual, choosing to have little or no impact is still a decision.
