Decision Making

"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing."

-Theodore Roosevelt

 

Decision making will be explored during the sixth unit of this course.  During this chapter, we will discuss and develop short- and long-term goals and establish effective ways to meet said goals.  Additionally, your personal priorities will be revealed as we consider, suggest, and review the people, places, and things that influence them.  This chapter will be practical in helping you determine what it is you would like to do with your life after high school.
