MODULE 3: THINKING ALOUD MY DECISION

LET’S TRY THIS!

1. Yes, its was the moment where I was choosing between an extra-curricular or focusing on my
academics. I was very eager to join the extra-curricular because it would be camping in the
school with friends, but I was also worried of my academic performance because there will be
an exam in my English subject. At the end, I choose my academic performance and I lost an
opportunity to hang with my friends and learn some stuff at the camping.
2. If I were him, I will look at other schools that are available. I feel there are several colleges to
which I am eligible to apply. There are always options accessible; all you have to do is seek for
them and take advantage of them when they present themselves.
3. It's normal to overthink anything that may impact our future, but we must make sure that we act
quickly enough to avoid missing out on life's possibilities.

better judgments is deteriorating, I must consider a number of things while making my
decision.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED

DEAR ANTON

If I were Anton, I'd make a decision sooner than he did, and maybe I'd get into the school of
my choosing. I will counsel him to pursue his true desires. What his heart craves, not what others
wish for him merely because he is gifted in a specific field. I'll urge him to find out what's important to
him and what he likes doing so he can think clearly and make the best decision possible. Of course, if
he takes too long and I feel that his opportunity is fading, I'll put pressure on him to make a choice
sooner. He'd be able to think more swiftly and clearly as a result of this. It's natural for us to have no
clue what we want to study in college, but we must make a choice so that we do not regret our
choices later.
