text: Important people like a CEO or the President of the United States don't make decisions for their corporation or the U.S. on their own, they talk to many of their peers first for advice. The best possible decision isn't always what benefits you the most. You must take others into account when you're decision making. That's why it's important to converse with others so you can get their point of view and their advice. The right decision is what's best for everyone, not just yourself. In some cases, there isn't a choice that will benefit everyone. In those times it's important not to doubt yourself because that will lead to a unfavorable outcome. For example, there was a time when I had to choose between staying home from school and helping my sick mom, or going to school and helping with a group project where I as the leader. My gut feeling was to stay home but I couldn't let my group down. I ended up staying home because my mother is more important than school. I did have to do make-up work because I missed school but I was glad that I had helped my mom. I felt that was the best choice I could make. The right decision shouldn't benefit us the most; the right decision lies within other needs.
