Decisions are the bed rock of human existence. The decisions we make today surely determines the direction of our life.
The mind and the heart are two uttermost part involved in our decision making. Some people prefer to use one and other combine both.
Understanding the above makes me conscious whenever I want to make a decision. Therefore,my preference for making decisions is basically my heart.
Sometimes I want to use my mind to make decisions but I end up using my heart because am very emotional.
There are times when I have said am going to do so and so to someone because of how they treated me badly,but along the line, I change my mind and decide to treat them well. This has happened countless times because my heart couldn't carry what I decided to do to these person's. I became soft.
Other times, I think I use my heart and mind in making decisions. Just recently I made a big decision based on my mind but it looked so hard so I added my heart in that decision making that gave it a balance.
I use my heart in making decisions because I feel my heart can not mislead me. My heart might not be very calculative but it always thinks things through.
Do you think we need both in terms of making decisions? Describe reasons. |

 me thinking what to say |

I think I mentioned something in line to this answer above. Yes we sure need both in decision making.
One can not make a perfect decision most times using just our mind or heart. The combination of both can give an amazing result.
Some time ago, some one made a comment about a particular incident. I felt bad about that comment, then I decided to start avoiding that person because I made that decision with my mind. I kept thinking hard about that comment, I evaluated it to the right and left.
I was firm with my decision to avoid the person and never have anything to do with this person. I was suppose to work on a prayer with this person but I always gave excuse because I was really avoiding this person.
My heart was always telling me that what if I was wrong so one day, I sat down to ask my self what the problem was, this time I decided to think about this person and the comment that hurt me. I discovered that I was only assuming things that didn't exist. There and then, I made up my mind to let go and move on. I asked my self who has been loosing? Things I was supposed to learn from the project I was leaning because I was avoiding someone for nothing.
I made peace and started moving on with this person again then one day this person asked me why I wasn't so friendly some time ago, I then explained and I was surprised at this person's response because it turned out my heart was right after all.
When the heart and mind works together it is so rare to find a fault or mistake because both tool are powerful.
Are you an emotional or a practical person in real life? |

 Pretty emotional me |
|---|
Well for me I can be both sometimes but most times I would say I am an emotional person.
It's beautiful to be emotional no matter what anyone wants to say. I know been emotional has its own side effects or disadvantages but believe me I think am more comfortable been emotional.
Sometimes I see my self crying like a child when seeing a movie. Some people say it's funny but I can not hide it even when I try.
Other times, when I see someone crying, I just start crying without knowing why the person is crying. Hahah!
Other times, I don't have a strong will power to stand on a hard decision I make, I just keep feeling I should not do it so I change again.
Do you have any suggestions for youth which one they should follow in their day-to-day lives? |
|---|
Well, I have heard people say follow your heart but do you think following your heart is the right thing to do?
My advice for youth is this..our day to day lives demands we make decisions therefore I suggest that youths in their decision making should always involve their mind and heart.
The heart is an emotional organ yes and emotions can be the most uncomfortable thing on earth. One time the emotions are high and you say and make decisions, the next minute the emotions are low, you begin to regret the other decisions made.
While the mind is critical or more practical, sometimes it can also make decisions that are too hard or may seem wicked and at this stage someone may term it been heartless.
The combination of the two is what makes the difference.

Tomar desiciones es algo que debemos pensar muy bien y como decis que muchos toman la parte de la mente y otros juntan las dos cosas, por esa razon usa su mente amiga porque es una persona muy emocional y eso no permite que use mucho la mente para tomar una desicion.
ম্যাম আপনাকে অনেক ধন্যবাদ প্রতিযোগীতায় অংশ নেয়ার জন্য। আপনি মন এবং হৃদয়ের মধ্যে হৃদয়কে সবসময় বেছে নেন এবং হৃদয় দিয়ে যেকোন জটিল সিদ্ধান্ত গ্রহণ ও সমস্যার সমাধান করেন। এ বিষয়ে আপনি একটি ঘটনাও আমাদের সাথে উল্লেখ করেছেন। সেখানে কিন্তু মনের ও হৃদয়ের মধ্যে হৃদয়ের জয় হয়েছিলো।
এছাড়াও আপনি বেশ আবেগপ্রবণ একজন মানুষ। অপরের কান্না দেখে আপনি কেঁদে ফেলেন অথচ জানেন না তার কান্নার পেছনের কারণ কী।
এরপর আপনি যুবকদের জন্য কিছু বার্তা দিয়েছেন। যুবকদের সিদ্ধান্ত গ্রহনের ক্ষেত্রে মন এবং হৃদয়ের ব্যবহার করতে বলেছেন। সব মিলিয়ে আপনার লিখাটি দারুণ উপভোগ্য ছিলো। ভালো থাকবেন ম্যাম। শুভকামনা রইলো।
Thanks very much for inviting me. I think these two work hand in hand. But since you prefer your heart who I mine to say otherwise. Just like you said my heart direct me well often times. I can also say I prefer heart than mind
You have made a beautiful entry dear... I hope am able to make an entry for this contest. Thanks for the invite, I wish you the very best.
Hola amiga, estoy de acuerdo contigo, yo me voy por el equilibrio de la mente y el corazón. Leyendo tu entrada he podido notar que eres una persona de muy bonitos sentimientos y realmente amas al prójimo, te duele cuando alguien llora o sufre, por qué dejar de ser una persona buena, al final cada día da lo que es.
Me encanta saber que siempre prefieres hacer el bien a pesar dé.
Por otro lado, me parece correcto que el coraón y la mente puedan darnos las mejores respuesta ante una situación, solo debemos pensar bien sin apuros y sin emociones rápidas.
Me encanto leerte, deseo que tengas mucho éxito en tu entrada.
Greetings friend! In your point of view heart and mind are best in making decisions. Recently you made a big decision based on our mind but it looked so hard so you added your heart in that decision making that gave it a balance. In my point of view you got a right decision. I wish you best of luck my dear steemit fellow.
