Life is a function of choice. No man is strong enough to avoid the necessity of making choices at one point or the other. However, one of the greatest challenges of man has been, making the right choices. This can be addressed proficiently, by putting certain steps into consideration before ever making preference.

Whether good or bad, the choices of yesterday are responsible for where we are now; and where we shall be found tomorrow depends on the choices we make now. MOVEMENT, NUTRITION and REPRODUCTION are voluntary exercises. But a critical consideration of the involuntary features of MAN for instance, reveals that there is a great influence on it from the voluntary features. All the voluntary features are hinged on CHOICE. You can choose to either move or not, eat or not, drink or not, reproduce or not etcetera; and even the involuntary actions involve voluntary responses. For example, when there is an urge to empty one’s bowel, there is usually a need for MOVEMENT to the lavatory, in every healthy and normal person (except in the case of immobility or incapacitation or chronic diseased condition). Thus, everything around man depends on the choice he makes; even inaction is a choice in itself. CHOICE IS THEREFORE A CHARACTERISTIC OF LIVING THINGS.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CHOICE AND DECISION

There is no identifiable difference between choice and decision, except that one seems to prelude the other most often than not. Decision always precedes choice making. In fact, choice is a product of decision; you talk about choice after a decision has been reached. Sometimes, they are correctly used interchangeably.

STEPS TOWARD MAKING RIGHT CHOICES

1.      Think before you act

2.      Defined your purpose

3.      Consider the alternatives available

4.      Compare the advantages over the disadvantages

5.      Consider the aftermath of the action

THINK BEFORE YOU ACT

Quality decision leads to quality choices. Quality decision is however, founded on critical thinking. Learn to think far as quickly as possible before you react to an action or respond to a question. Thinking will help you choose your words (right words) and eventually win more respect from your hearers. The first step before embarking on any adventure no matter how glamorous is to think about it. Never you act by your feelings but listen to your thoughts.

DEFINED YOUR PURPOSE

You will take the wrong decision, make the wrong choice and do the wrong thing, if you do not define your purpose. For everything under the heavens is a purpose. Without the understanding of the purpose of what you desire to accomplish, then abuse becomes inevitable. Always find out the purpose for all things, it will guide you into making the very right choice about such things. Questions like: why am I here? Why should I speak these words? Why should I be there? Why should I eat now? Why should I buy this item now? Do I need it? Will I regret it later? ... will help you know the purpose of a thing and thus make a right choice about it.

CONSIDER THE ALTERNATIVES AVAILABLE

Find out the alternative way of doing the task, or find out the alternative word to use in expressing yourself say in an angry situation, find out the alternative products of the brand you desire, find out the alternative treatment to your ailment, before settling for any. You never can tell; the best can be found among the alternatives. The wider the range from which you make a choice, the better it is. Do not restrict yourself to what is usual, find out new possibilities before ever taking a decision.

COMPARE THE ADVANTAGES OVER THE DISADVANTAGES

From your list of alternatives, compare their merits over their demerits each, and then go for the one that is more advantageous. Remember that your desire is to make a right choice for a maximum result.

CONSIDER THE AFTERMATH OF THE ACTION

For every decision you make, give cognizance to the after effects. Most people are just concerned about now, neglecting the future to the detriment of their joy. The future is more important than now. Make sure that your choices have no dangerous effects on your tomorrow. No matter how good a thing sounds for the moment, if it is injurious to the future, then discard it. A right decision or choice should have a fair impact on both the immediate and the future.

CONCLUSION

To live on, on the earth calls for constant choice making or decision taking; but it is very important that the right decisions are made. Only a right decision can produce a right result. To accomplish this, five steps have been addressed, to include: thinking, definition of purpose, paying attention to available alternatives, placing the merits and demerits on a balance, and being futuristic, that is learning the principle of the use of the periscope.
