Decision Leader Mark

More From Larry Niven

To be secure everywhere is the mark of sophistication, to be unshakable is the mark of courage, to be permanently in love with every person is the mark of masculinity or femininity, to forgive is the mark of strength, to govern our senses and passions is the mark of freedom.
Passion Forgiving Unshakable
The most basic principle to being a free american is the notion that we as individuals are responsible for our own lives and decisions. we do not have the right to rob our neighbors to make up for our mistakes, neither does our neighbor have any right to tell us how to live, so long as we aren’t infringing on their rights. freedom to make bad decisions is inherent in the freedom to make good ones. if we are only free to make good decisions, we are not really free.
Mistake Rights Long
I never feel a huge need for backstory in my novels or films. quick sketches are often enough. when you encounter people in life - like a chance encounter at a bar or wherever you happen to be - you make these incredibly quick, quite intricate decisions about people based on very small amounts of coded information. we're good at that. long descriptions prior to meeting someone or as you're getting to know them almost don't work.
Long People Decision
A wise man ought always to follow the paths beaten by great men, and to imitate those who have been supreme, so that if his ability does not equal theirs, at least it will savor of it. let him act like the clever archers who, designing to hit the mark which yet appears too far distant, and knowing the limits to which the strength of their bow attains, take aim much higher than the mark, not to reach by their strength or arrow to so great a height, but to be able with the aid of so high an aim to hit the mark they wish to reach.
Strength Wise Hope
The way to make better decisions is to make more of them. then make sure you learn from each one, including those that don't seem to work out in the short term: they will provide valuable distinctions to make better evaluations and therefore decisions in the future. realize that decision making, like any skill you focus on improving, gets better the more often you do it.
Motivational Skills Work Out
Now more than ever i am aware that a person's significant birthdays can either mark the passage of time, or they can mark changes they've made in their lives to reach their potential and become the person they were created to be. with each passing year, i want to make good choices that make me a better person, help me become a better leader, and make a positive impact on others.
