At the end of the session, learners will be able to:

c) practice proper ways on how to decide in a right way.
Key Concepts:  Before making a decision, it's important to have a clear
understanding of what you want to achieve and the objectives
you aim to fulfill. This clarity helps in evaluating choices
against your desired outcomes.
 Making informed decisions requires gathering relevant
information and considering various perspectives. This may
involve conducting research, seeking advice from experts, or
consulting relevant sources to gain a comprehensive
understanding of the situation.
 Critical thinking involves analyzing information objectively,
evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of different options,
and reasoning logically to arrive at a well-informed decision. It
entails questioning assumptions, identifying biases, and
considering evidence to support your choice.
 It's essential to explore multiple alternatives before making a
decision. This allows you to weigh the pros and cons of each
option and select the one that best aligns with your goals and
values.
 Every decision involves some level of risk. Evaluating the
potential risks and benefits associated with each option helps
in making a more balanced decision. It's important to consider
both short-term and long-term consequences.
 Making the right decision often involves considering ethical
principles and values. This includes considering the impact of
your decision on others, adhering to moral standards, and
acting with integrity and fairness.
 Establishing a systematic decision-making process can help in
making consistent and effective decisions. This may involve
defining decision criteria, generating alternatives, evaluating
options, and implementing a course of action.
 Recognize that circumstances may change, and it's essential to
remain flexible and adaptable in your decision-making process.
Being open to new information and adjusting your approach as
needed can help in making better decisions over time.
 After making a decision, take the time to reflect on the
outcomes and evaluate the effectiveness of your choice.
Learning from both successes and failures can help refine your
decision-making skills and improve future decisions.
