  1. I think my Mom is a good decision maker. I think she's a good decision maker because she doesn't rush with them. She always evaluates her options and weighs the pros and the cons. She makes sure the outcome is a good and fair one.

  2. I believe that my older brother, Joseph, is a very good decision-maker. Aside from being incredibly helpful whenever I am in need of reasoning, he is always able to provide me with a realistic yet hopeful outlook of the given situation. He is very sensible but not in a discouraging way, and being his fantastic analytical self I am always able to count on him when in need.

  3. I believe my dad is a good decision maker. He always makes sure to think about how the decisions he makes will affect not only himself but everyone else as well. Whenever he has to make a huge decision that will affect everyone he talks to everyone before making his decision and makes sure everyone is somewhat on the same page. Whenever I need to make a decision I will always go to him for advice and any decisions I've made with his help have turned out to be the best decision.

  4. I believe my mom is a great decision maker. Whenever my mom is faced with difficult decisions she weighs the pros and cons and evaluates how the decision will affect her and everyone else involved. But before she can come to a conclusion she needs to ask the Lord. My mom always turns to God for reason and inspiration. She trusts that the Lord will guide her in the right direction and I think that's incredibly admirable.

  5. I think my parents are good decision makers. They fully think things through before making a difficult choice, and guide me to make the right choices in my life as well. They never rush into things and manage to always keep everything in perspective. They're very reasonable people and I aspire to gain the same decision making skills that they've acquired!

  7. I think my mum is a good decision maker. Because of her job and social experience, she considerate think things before she make any decision. She also teaches me how to make some important things in my life. Before she needs to make a choice, she would like to compare the advantage and disadvantage. She always keep clam even if she faces a difficult situation, That's the thing I most admire her.

  8. I think that my best friend Vanessa is an amazing decision maker and I am so inspired by her for that reason!! Whenever she is faced with a difficult situation in her life, whether it is related to school or home or friends, she always spends so much time thinking things through and weighing out the pros and cons of every possible decision. She even makes lists comparing the potential consequences and benefits of each choice, which I think it such a wonderful idea because it helps to make a daunting decision much less intimidating and a lot more manageable! I also love that Vanessa is never afraid to ask for help from her family, friends, or teachers if she is confused about making the right choice, as this shows that she understands the value of gaining an outside perspective to make the pathway to the best possible decision much clearer! All of this adds up to a girl who makes logical, moral, and inspirational decisions all the time, and I am so proud of her for that and I believe it is something we can all learn from! <3 :)

  9. My sister is a good decision maker because whenever she is faced with a difficult decision, she does not take the easy way out. Throughout high school, she worked very hard as a national level athlete and maintained very good grades which led to an athletic scholarship in the United States. Instead of being careless in university, she became the captain of the swim team and had a 4.0 average. Her great decisions have led to who she is today and if I could have a fourth of her ability to make good decisions, I would consider myself to be lucky.

  14. I believe my dad is a good decision maker because before making a decision he makes himself aware of both the positive and negative consequences that could be a result of the decision he makes. He also does not panic in situations where he is required to make the right decision quickly. He keeps everything in perspective and takes into consideration not only the immediate effects of his decision but the long term ones as well.

  15. I believe that my brother is a good decision maker. In a time of confusion help just take a step back to see what all of his options are and he always make the bad decisions into good desision.He might not see if he went wrong later along the way but he is only in is late teens so the butterfly effect has not influenced his live that much. Roman my brother make the decision I want to make so in my eye it just make the decisions which also influences my choice on who to pick as the person who makes the best decision.

  16. I believe that my mum is a really good decision maker. Whenever she is faced with a problem, she always makes sure to consider all possible perspectives of the situation, and she is never quick to judge others. She has a very strong moral compass; when in doubt, she is always true to her beliefs and her sense of faith.
    During times when my family has struggled, her choices always reflect her love for us and her desire to do what's best for us.

  18. My mother is a great decision maker because of her patience, understanding and knowledge. My mom always identifies her goal, gathers information to weigh her options, considers the consequences, makes her decision and then lastly, evaluates her decisions. These steps she takes always lead her into the right direction and I learn a lot from the process she takes to get to where she needs to be.

  21. I think a good decision maker is my father. He had to make a lot of tough decisions growing up in a rougher neighborhood. He had to make a lot of decisions that went against what his friends were doing. He wouldn't go out and steal or hang around late in places like his friends. He decided to attend high school outside of his neighborhood for a better opportunity of attending university. He had to make a lot of good decisions in University so he wouldn't lose his scholarship. That meant a lot of time studying and training, without a lot of hanging out with friends.
    My dad had to make a lot of good decisions to be in the position he is today. He still sacrifices a lot for us so that we (my family) is as fortunate as possible.
