So the question is, what kind of decision-maker are you going to be? To help keep you from sabotaging your future, here are five decisions not to make.
- Disobey your parents. God has placed your parents in your life to help guide you.
- Make quick decisions. Before making a decision, take time to think it over.
- Develop wrong relationships. The people you spend time with probably have the most influence on the decisions you make.
- Wait for your big break. You must get off the couch and pursue your God-given destiny.
- Give up. Both winners and losers face challenges, but winners don't quit.
