JOURNAL #2 What is the PROCESS you use to make a decision? Write down at LEAST 3 things you do.

What is the DIFFERNCE between making a decision and making a GOOD DECISION??

Making a GOOD Decision includes: Critical Thinking Good Judgment Responsible behavior Considering the RISKS Attitude

CRITICAL THINKING

What is Critical Thinking?? Being able to apply LOGIC and make your OWN decisions

**THINK FOR YOURSELF** Critical thinking allows us to make our own decisions regardless of the opinions of others. The critical thinking process is an essential part of decision-making and should be used during the decision-making experience.

CRITICAL THINKING STEPS Identify and describe a problem or situation Distinguish what is fact versus someones’ opinion List possible solutions and their outcomes Identify personal and family values that conflict with the situation

GOOD JUDGEMENT

Judgment: The process of forming an opinion or reaching a conclusion based on the available material. PROS VS CONS

Responsible behavior

Responsible Behavior: Taking responsibility for one’s actions, belongings and space.

“Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it.” - Playwright George Bernard Shaw

Considering Risks

Why do people take risks?

People take risks for many reasons: To gain respect in the eyes of others Not knowing the facts about what they are doing To meet personal goals Because of personal beliefs For personal gain Etc.

Psychological: Causing emotional harm or injury to yourself Physical: Causing physical harm or injury to yourself (skiing, racing, etc.) Psychological: Causing emotional harm or injury to yourself (love, trying out for something, disobeying parents, etc.) Legal: Causing risks with the law (stealing, running away, hurting someone, etc.) Social: Causing a risk of rejection by your peers (standing up for your beliefs, revealing a secret, going against what the crowd is doing, greeting a new person, etc.) Educational: Causing a risk in being prepared for the future (dropping out of school, sluffing class, not completing assignments, being tardy, etc.)

Setting a goal and reaching it Learning a new skill Risk-taking can be positive, too. Some examples of positive risk taking are: Setting a goal and reaching it Learning a new skill Doing something beyond your expectations

Attitude

It’s basically the way we look at things What is attitude? It’s basically the way we look at things

How can your attitude affect the decisions that you make?

Your attitude: Influences your decisions Reflects how you treat others Leads to self-respect Enhances human relationships

Attitude is everything!

How do our Decisions and ATTITUDE impact our GOALS?

GOALS! How to be SUCCESSFUL 1. Identify your goal in WRITING IF IT IS NOT WRITTEN IT IS JUST A WISH!

WHAT/WHO can help you reach your goal? WHO CAN YOU BE ACCOUNTABLE TOO? 2- Identify RESOURCES WHAT/WHO can help you reach your goal? WHO CAN YOU BE ACCOUNTABLE TOO?

3-MAP OUT GOAL ACHIEVEMENT Short-range goals are necessary to achieve the major goal.

4-WORK, WORK, WORK Work toward the goal and adjust your map as needed.

5-ACHIEVE and EVALUATE What did you learn? What went well? What could you do differently to be more successful when you pursue your next goal? CELEBRATE YOUR SUCCESS!

One thing to remember… It is important that we learn from the experiences of others. An individual cannot possibly learn everything for himself/herself, but must rely on the learning’s of those around him/her and/or individuals from history. By observing the actions, decisions, judgments and consequences of others, we can learn a great deal.

Questions to ask myself when making a decision : (- write this down in your note book) 1. Is it against the law, rules or the teaching of my family or religion? 2. Is it harmful to me or to others? 3. Would it disappoint my family or other adults that are important to me? 4. Is it wrong to do? Would I be sorry afterward? 5. Would I be hurt or upset if someone did this to me?

How can the skills that we have talked about today help you prevent problems in your life?

What is the difference between making a decision and using good judgment?

It’s up to you! No one can make lives critical decisions for you (as much as some of your parents want to). It is all up to YOU. What you will choose to do? Just know there will be consequences for all of your choices (for good or for bad).

One of your friends was making fun of another kid at school? What would you do if… One of your friends was making fun of another kid at school?

Your friends tried to get you to shop lift something with them? What would you do if… Your friends tried to get you to shop lift something with them?

What would you do if… Your were invited to a party by someone that you really liked and you knew there was going to be drinking at the party?

What would you do if… Someone you were dating told you that they really loved you and wanted to have sex with you?

Take Home Message DECISIONS DETERMINE DESTINY Be BRAVE enough to stand up for what you believe in, SMART enough to critically think about the PROs/Cons and be RESPONSIBLE enough to use good judgment to make your final decision.
