I nid ur opinion 'bout this jIan9007. special request,please....

Answer 1

A decision should be made consulting people. Bcoz, you will be looking at some aspect only in your perspective. There are always chances that you are taking sides(bcoz u personally favour a particular thought). Hence its better to ask others for their opinions. Their suggestions may open up a new window or stream of possibilities.
And since any important decision means it is gonna affect you life in some way or the other, you should think about it, analyse every possibility before jumping to conclusions.
In the end, you are going to give the final judgment. So when it comes to taking decision, its better to consult others, keeping an open mind to all their suggestions.

The situation will be different if you are married. In such a case, your partner plays a equal role in coming to final decision.

Answer 2

Ultimately, a decision has to be made by the one person who it will affect, but I believe in talking it through with people before doing anything. So, I kind of agree & disagree at the same time!! Sorry!!

If it is a life changing decision, it is always best to get opinions, or just use someone as a sounding board... it's amazing how you will come up with the decision when talking to someone, and not even realise that it was the decision you wanted.

Hope that makes sense!!

Answer 3

Disagree.

Be a leader not a follower, the greatest leaders have made mistakes, so it would be no horrific act if you discovered your decision had the potential to ruin things. Being able to ammend and atone for your own mistakes is the greater task.

If you do seek advice from anyone, make sure they have been in a similar situation first and then ask them what hurdles they faced. In the end though, you alone have to make the final decision, you alone have to live with the consequences. All possible scenarios should be thought out before commitment.

Friends tend to give you the encouragement to do what you want to do, not necessarily what is the RIGHT thing to do.

Answer 4

You should always seek to be master of your own destiny, be your own person and make important decisions exactly how you want to make them.

However, one should always seek the council of others in coming to an important decision, just in case there's something that might of been missed.

If you've already made your decision before you seek council, then this isn't really seeking council, it's canvassing for votes, and the chances are you won't listen to any arguments against. It's better to weigh all options and seek council first, with an opinion but no definite decision made. This way, you'll be giving your friends proper ear time, including them in your life and making them feel good - which is what friends are for, really.

Answer 5

I think that, no matter what decisions you are forced to make, you should always get, or ask for, help, guidance, and advice from other people, especially friends and family, because then you get other people's pionts of view, and not just your own, sometimes enabling you to see the situation differently.
You take the advice into consideration, but don't always use it. So, yes, really you are making your own decisions, but with the help and support of others.

Answer 6

I think while you can get others' opinions, the ultimate decision should be one's own. It's easy to rely on others because then in case things go wrong or don't work out the way you wanted, you can always blame others fo suggesting it to u! However, I think most people get scared and worried to take responsibility and would then rely on others rather than on themselves. I for one, make important decisions on my own after consulting others --- whether they agree or not.

Additionally...if I had listened to others, I'd be doing engineering or medicine today and would have hated it ...instead I stuck to m decision of doing Psychology and I'm proud of myself today

Answer 7

Depends on the decision, and how if that decision will affect other people. I make lots of important decisions on my own in my work. On the other hand decisions about money I usually talk them over with my wife. Before I was married I seldom discussed my money matters with others.

Answer 8

It doesn't really matter dear, whether you make the decision alone or not. Even so-called "friends" can help you make the wrong one.

It's best to make it alone then you have no-one else to blame if you made the wrong choice, and it will be easier to put things right.

Learn from your own errors of judgement, you are strong enough.

Answer 9

Disagreed

Answer 10

i think of a individual would desire to be content textile for awhile yet to be rather chuffed we ought to have a companion. We have been created to be paired. our bodies have been made to offer existence. Our hearts can produce infinite quantities of affection and compassion. If we've not got somebody to proportion it with then i do no longer see how a individual would desire to be rather happy with existence.
