Consequences are more important than decisions. We often make choices without thinking about the consequences from those choices. It might sound like a good idea right now, but if it lands you in prison in the future, maybe it isn’t such a good idea after all. You might get some type of instant gratification right now, but that doesn’t mean it will not have a negative effect on your life in the long run. That goes for all decisions, from what we decide to eat today, to what person we decide to get into a relationship with.
A question that I often ask myself before making a decision, that I got from Dr. Myles Munroe, is “will I enjoy remembering this” if the answer is “no”, then I don’t do it. I also like to think about all possible outcomes and consequences before I make a decision. This helps me make better choices in life. You should try it also.
