So I watching a PBS program by this guy called “Seven Decisions that Determine Personal Success” by Andy Andrews. Seems like a nice bloke but ha! here is a little summary of the seven decisions:

1. The Buck Stops Here – Taking personal responsibility

2. Seek Wisdom – Search for understanding and discernment

3. Be a Person of Action – Being a courageous leader

4. Have a Decided Heart – Overcoming double-mindedness

5. Choose Happiness – Possessing a grateful spirit

6. Forgive others – The power of grace and mercy

7. Persist – Perservering with faith until the end

So now you know! Get to it. Perhaps more on it at a later date.
