What is your preference while making decisions, heart or mind?

I am more of a decision making person but can not rule out the fact that the heart is always where sentiment is habored, and hence, there is no way it won't come into play no matter how little.

When it comes to family and blood related issues, there's obvious fact that we may likely give in to heart related decisions that are sentimental in nature.

But other decision-making that entail our education, career, business, and other transactional activities are out in place, and the mind decision is the way to go.

For the purposes of having a preference here, I will go for Mind Decision making.

Do you think we need both in terms of making decisions? Describe reasons.

We need both in terms of decision making, but this would be determined by how much we need to apply one over the other. In whatever we are doing, we are to ensure that we create a balance between these two OR ensure that the mind aspect dominates as the case may be.

Since the heart aspect deals on sentiment and all that surrounds the familiarity of the other person in which these decisions have to be jointly implemented, we should also be weary of not sabotaging the agenda.

While i will always want to go for the mind aspect of the decision-making, we should not be rigid in our policies, which hence makes us autocratic. We have to imbibe dimplomacy and linency but nkt at the detriment of success.

Are you an emotional or a practical person in real life?

I am a little of the mix of bith emotional and practical. I am emotional, most especially where family and siblings may be concerned and where the subject of discussion isn't any serious to cause damage where it goes haywire.

But on the contrary, my real nature is tailored towards mind type of decision making. This is where serious and practical decision making depend on for lasting solution.

Do you have any suggestions for youth which one they should follow in their day-to-day lives?

My advice to the youth is nothing but the following instruction while living up to their day to day lives.

• They should ensure they know how best to differentiate between pleasure and work as this would guide on how best to handle the heart and mind decision making.

• They do not need to make hasty decisions when under pressure or duress as this most at times are devastating.

• When we are emotionally unstable in situatios of being over joyous or angry, making decision is usually erronous.
