When we are attempting to improve ourselves we find that we have to make some very large emotional decisions that will have such a huge impact on us that it will change the 
entire direction of our lives.
Most of us simply stop moving ahead. We know what we have but are afraid of what might happen. This negative thinking that each of us has is reduced to the old adage: “The devil we know is better than the devil we don’t.” This is what stops us.
I have experienced this many times during the course of my very eventful life, and that is the very reason my life has been so very eventful. What I have accomplished during any one of my years since age 13 is more than most people do in their entire lifetimes. Call it what you will: intuition; common sense; extra sensory perception (ESP); divine inspiration; spirituality; or even miracle, but whatever name is assigned to it, one thing is certain: I have made decisions and moved ahead. Some have been great, others have been wrong. Many have been strong, several have been humbling. No matter what the consequence each decision was a learning experience that now, in retrospect, has been astonishing in its own way.
Today I offer you a scientific way to make your major (and minor) decisions about life’s pathways. I never thought of decision making quite this way when it comes to my personal life, but Joe Weldon explains it perfectly.
Joe Weldon recently posted the 51% Rule (Should you change or improve). It was my delight to find a perfect solution that could be passed on to others in helping them make decisions about their lives, especially the larger decisions. Here is the link to his blog post for your enjoyment and enlightenment.
