“My basic principle is that you don’t make decisions because they are easy; you don’t make them because they are cheap; you don’t make them because they’re popular; you make them because they’re right.” To me, this quote means that is that people don’t, and should make decisions based on popularity, simplicity, or cheapness. You make them because they are what you think know know what’s right at the time. When you apply this to the decisions you’re forced to face, you will most likely have a positive outcome. Even when you’re forced to make a really difficult decision, choose what you know is right, and the other choices won’t matter anymore. This helps you, by getting you on the road or path to success. Ultimately makes you independent, and a good decision maker. These are some important characteristics that leaders tend to have. This can remind you to always look at the possibilities and results of every decision or problem you’re forced to face in your life.
