DECISION MAKING & GOAL

2 October 2023.. GOALS Nightdream.. ( in reality , I sent this message to my partner)

I am hugging you tight 😘 before I woke up, I kept hearing a voice said : set a goal. Clear one. The one that you really want. And make sure you use that as the light 🕯️/ the purpose of your daily life. So that you don't get lost. Without your clear goal... Life has no meaning.

You set your goal to the US while part of you resists to go there because of so many homeless and immigrants all over the news. Redefine your goal, kid. ( I heard this again and again until my alarm turned on ).

✅ Decision Formula: "HEAD – HEART – HANDS – HARMONY"

1. HEAD (Logic)

   • Can I afford the trip financially without stress?

   • Will this convention bring tangible benefits to my career or Rotary role?

   • Are there more valuable things I could do with the same time and money?

2. HEART (Feelings)

   • Do I feel excited, inspired, or happy when thinking about attending?

   • Am I going just out of obligation or FOMO (fear of missing out)?

3. HANDS (Practical)

   • Do I have the time and energy?

   • Will this trip support my current goals (networking, leadership, peacebuilding, travel)?

4. HARMONY (Alignment)

   • Does it align with my long-term goals (ex: international career, North Node path, peace-building, spiritual journey)?

   • Will going bring me peace, growth, or unnecessary stress?

If your answer is mostly “No” to the above, you don’t need to attend.

💡 The 7-Step Decision-Making Formula (With Example: “Should I Spend or Not?”)

Struggling to make a decision — especially when money or time is involved? Use this simple step-by-step formula to guide you with logic, intuition, and clarity.

---

✅ Step 1: Define the Decision Clearly

What exactly are you deciding?

🔸 Example:

“Should I spend money to attend the Convention in Taipei?”

---

✅ Step 2: Know Your Why

Why does this decision matter to you? What do you hope to gain or avoid?

🔸 Example:

“I want to expand my network, grow as a future leader, and gain international exposure.”

---

✅ Step 3: List the Options

What are your real choices?

🔸 Example:

• Attend the convention

• Don’t attend

• Attend virtually (if available)

• Delay and join another event later

---

✅ Step 4: Evaluate Pros and Cons

Create a simple table:

Option	Pros	Cons
Attend	Networking, learning, credibility boost	High cost, travel stress, time away from work
Don’t attend	Save money, stay focused on local work	Missed opportunity, FOMO
Attend virtually	Low cost, still get info	Limited networking, not the full experience

✨ Tip: You can score each item (1–10) based on your priorities.

---

✅ Step 5: Check Alignment With Your Goals or Values

Does this decision help you move closer to your life, career, or personal goals?

🔸 Example:

“My long-term goal is to be a global changemaker and thought leader. Attending aligns with that, even if it costs more now.”

---

✅ Step 6: Tune Into Your Intuition

How do you feel deep down about this choice?

🔸 Ask yourself:

• Am I excited, nervous, or resistant?

• Is this fear or wisdom?

• If money weren’t an issue, what would I choose?

---

✅ Step 7: Decide or Set a Deadline

Make your choice — or set a clear date to decide.

🔸 Example:

“I will decide by July 1st. If I can afford the ticket + hotel without debt, I will go.”

---

✅ Summary Template (Copy & Use):

I decide to ____________ because it helps me ____________.

🔸 Example:

“I decide to attend the Convention because it helps me grow my leadership and international presence.”
