After telling a friend about your decision to do something, have you ever had that person ask you what was the reason for that decision? Of course. We all have. Did you know that you make your decisions based on your reasoning skills? It's true. Reasoning along with perception, imagination, intuition, will, and memory you are a super-sonic person able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Ok. So that last part may not be entirely true but with your reasons behind your decision, you do have extra power and strength to do what some people consider impossible. Your reasoning skills are, indeed, part of your great and wonderous mental faculties that we can and must deliberately use every day if we want a life of pure joy, laughter, and happiness. Do you dream of a life full of lovely things such as travel, great friends, and doing what you want without explanation? Here within this episode, you will discover your reasoning abilities and how that one reason may make a decision that will change your life forever. You might just get the greatest result or goal out of reasoning and making that right decision. And that does make you super-sonic! Cool. Right? If you love the content you may consider buying me a cup of coffee! Go to: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/stephlee This technique and all the topics I talk about take tenacity and a desire to see yourself living your best life right now and that is exactly what will make great things happen. Whatever you do, don't give up and always believe that the impossible is not impossible. It is only your thinking that makes it so. To have a more productive life in this ever-changing world listen to this episode. Get your dreams, desires, and results that you want. It's easy once you have the 411. *And no matter what, always remember what I've always said about this world, "Everything has to do with Everything." The simplest innocuous activity you do will affect another person, and maybe that other person is across the street, in another city, on the other side of the globe, OR not even born yet. The implications of your actions weigh heavy on you. At the beginning of this year, 2021, I challenged myself using the great number seven. Do your very own seven-day challenge. The number seven is great for attracting things to you! Involve the number seven as much as you can because the number seven invokes that great law of the universe, The Law of Attraction. 1. Think of seven actions you can take and do that action for seven minutes/days/weeks. The more you involve the number seven the better it gets. 2. Make an affirmation whether it be a word or a sentence that's positive and write that affirmation seven times a day for seven days. 3. Sit quietly for seven minutes (set your timer) and think of what you want and/or how you see yourself in this world receiving what you want, pretending that you already have it. Make sure it's a good thing. Do this for seven days. 4. Do a creative and exciting action that is going to move you closer to your goal. For me, I want to be a successful podcaster in my genre so I will do an episode every day for seven days. 5. Make it fun and not a chore.

00:00:00.400 --> 00:00:04.120
This is Growing Uncomfortable, the podcast that explores techniques that

2
00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:07.799
will improve your life. Growing Uncomfortable with Stephanie Lee starts

3
00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:10.640
right now.

4
00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:15.919
Hello, this is Stephanie and this is Growing Uncomfortable. Hey.

5
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:20.120
You know what I am growing uncomfortable every day in

6
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:23.760
every way, and I hope you are too. Growing uncomfortable

7
00:00:23.879 --> 00:00:27.160
is taking a comfortable situation that you're not happy with

8
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:31.320
and getting out of that comfortable situation by doing things

9
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:34.719
by the actions that you take by getting uncomfortable. And

10
00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:37.240
that's the way to get what you want. And that

11
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:40.240
is so cool and I want that for you. If

12
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:43.240
you are a new listener here at Growing Uncomfortable, I

13
00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:45.520
want to thank you so much for tuning in and

14
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:49.399
I hope that you enjoyed this episode. Well, now get cozy,

15
00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:53.640
get comfortable, get your favorite drink, and sit down on

16
00:00:53.679 --> 00:00:58.679
your favorite cozy chair and listen and enjoy this episode

17
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:04.079
on decision, Well, the decision making process is, at its core,

18
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:08.159
a reasoning process that we all have available to us

19
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:12.159
any time we want. Did you know that it is

20
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:16.799
one of our six great mental faculties, along with perception,

21
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:22.760
the will, memory, imagination, and intuition, And I will talk

22
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:27.480
about all those things in later episodes. We all use

23
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:32.319
these mental faculties every day and most times, well we're

24
00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:36.000
not even aware that we're using our mental faculties, but

25
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:40.439
we need them. Our reasoning process is how we get

26
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.000
to the decisions we make about all kinds of things,

27
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:48.319
well everything. It is based on what is there in

28
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:51.920
front of you, what has happened in your past, who

29
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:56.280
you've met, who you've been, who you've been with everything.

30
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.000
Allow yourself the time to go into your own space

31
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:05.719
alone and talk it through by yourself about the reasons

32
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:09.240
for the decision that you're about to make or the

33
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:12.879
decision that you've made. How many times have you talked

34
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:16.080
to a friend who has said, why did you make

35
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:19.919
that decision? Well, the decision that you've made comes from

36
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:25.400
the reasoning process. In any important matter, that's the way

37
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:31.439
it comes through reasoning. Every important decision has come through

38
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:37.000
the reasoning process. That's right. But how do you use

39
00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:40.639
your reasoning skills to decide those areas in your life,

40
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:45.199
your job, your personal life, who you're dating, where you're going,

41
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:48.199
are you going left or right? When you drive? All

42
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:53.400
these things are so important and using your reasoning faculty

43
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:58.759
that can change your decision will Your decisions are based

44
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:04.159
on your values, your preferences, and your beliefs of what

45
00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:09.159
decision or step will be next. We've all had these

46
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:11.919
things happen to us. But how do you use your

47
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:17.199
reasoning skills to decide those areas in your life? Every

48
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:21.719
time you have a reason for doing something anything, and

49
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:25.120
then make the decision to do it, well, hopefully it's

50
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.599
a positive step forward. First of all, it will give

51
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:31.000
you the right decision that you want to go on

52
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:34.000
and take the actions that you need and think and

53
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:36.879
grow rich. By Napoleon Hill, a book that I always

54
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:40.199
mention and have with me all the time. He says

55
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:45.800
this about decision Those that reach decisions promptly and definitely

56
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.840
know what they want and generally get it. The leaders

57
00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:54.960
in every walk of life decide quickly and firmly. This

58
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:58.280
is the major reason they are leaders. Let's think about

59
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:01.680
Henry Ford, for example. He's a leader, and he made

60
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:04.639
the decision to do certain things in his life firmly

61
00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:08.280
and quickly. And he had to the same way you do.

62
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:11.360
When you're at an intersection, should you go left or right?

63
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:14.439
Well we'll talk about that in a little bit later.

64
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:18.040
The world has the habit of making room for the

65
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:22.240
man or woman whose words and actions show that he

66
00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:26.000
knows where he or she is going. And that's through

67
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:29.639
reasoning it out. You know, for example, if you can

68
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:34.279
reason through the why and what you want, then your

69
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:38.360
decision is always made for you. The reasoning will be there,

70
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:42.879
and in the end, your goal will be met because

71
00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:47.319
you've made the right decision. Well, let's give me as

72
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:51.800
an example, since this is certainly a good example of

73
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:55.079
something that's happened to me recently. Now, the decision that

74
00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:57.839
I have is I am going to do a video

75
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:02.360
along with my podcast. Well, I think it will be cool. Okay,

76
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:04.759
that's a statement, and I am going to do that.

77
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:09.000
But what's the reasoning behind that decision. Well, I want

78
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:12.199
my listeners that would be you, to be able to

79
00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:15.879
relate to me, see me as their friend and trust me.

80
00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:19.959
I think having a nicely put together background and have

81
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:24.920
a pleasant smile will represent a great image and you

82
00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:29.560
will get to know what I'm like, my expressions when

83
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.839
I smile or when I'm upset, that kind of thing.

84
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:38.120
And besides, people love to watch and listen whenever they can.

85
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:42.360
And by the way, that is using two of your

86
00:05:42.519 --> 00:05:47.560
most important senses. Right, you're watching and you're listening, which

87
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:51.120
makes it even better. The more senses that a person uses,

88
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:55.040
the better it is. So the result of this decision

89
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:59.000
to maybe put myself on video as well as do

90
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:04.040
the podcast in audio is that I will perhaps get

91
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:08.399
more followers, more of an audience, because people love to

92
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:13.360
watch and listen to my show. This is your ultimate goal.

93
00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:17.519
That follower or that audience that I don't normally have,

94
00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:23.240
will watch and may very well download or become a follower.

95
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:27.279
That is a perfect example. So you get to the reasoning,

96
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:31.079
you make the decision, and then the result will come,

97
00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:34.399
and that is really cool. Well how about this one.

98
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:38.120
Suppose you are going to your favorite coffee shop but

99
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:42.759
you reach an intersection. All the ways will get you

100
00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:47.360
to the coffee shop. Do you go left, right, or straight?

101
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:51.040
They're all going to get you there. The decision you

102
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:55.160
have made is to go right. You could have gone anyway,

103
00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:58.839
but the reason for the decision. It shaves off a

104
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:02.879
little more time and it's a nicer view. Well it's prettier,

105
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:06.480
but the result is really what comes. You get there

106
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:09.959
five minutes earlier, where you chat with someone that's in

107
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:13.959
line and offers you a job perhaps, and if you

108
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:18.399
had taken a left or gone straight, it would be

109
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:21.800
a few minutes later and you would not have met

110
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:26.199
the person that you chatted with. Now, that is using

111
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:30.519
your reasoning abilities, your decision from your reasoning, and the

112
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:33.959
result that you want the action that you want. And

113
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:37.439
that's so cool that it is getting your goal the

114
00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:40.839
reasoning and decision and the result is to be willing

115
00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:44.920
to see whatever your decision is to the end. Hopefully

116
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:48.319
it's a good decision, but if it's not, take the responsibility.

117
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:53.680
PubMed dot com says here, reasoning in the real world

118
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:58.839
supports decision making and is aimed at the achievement of goals,

119
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:02.079
and isn't that the truth? And that is what we

120
00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:07.480
are aiming for? And in Concordia Saintpaul dot edu it

121
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.839
says here identified the decision you need to make. The

122
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:15.639
first step in making the right decision is recognizing the

123
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:21.000
problem or the opportunity and deciding to address it. Determine

124
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:24.399
why this decision will make a difference to your life.

125
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.600
Gather the information and reasoning before the decision so that

126
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:32.840
you can make a decision based on facts and data.

127
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:38.360
This requires making a value judgment, determining what information is

128
00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:42.240
relevant to the decision at hand, along with how you

129
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:47.080
can get to it using a great deal of reasoning skills. Well,

130
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:50.600
ask yourself what you need to know in order to

131
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:55.440
make the right decision. It's so important. Then actively seek

132
00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:59.639
out anyone who needs to be involved or can maybe

133
00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:02.639
help you you. Maybe you don't need anyone's help, but

134
00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:06.159
guess what, that's part of your reasoning skills that will

135
00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:09.600
help you make that decision. So now it's time to

136
00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:13.440
evaluate those reasoning skills what made you come up with

137
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:16.799
the decision. There will be times when the decision is

138
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:20.960
complex and you aren't sure where the main issue lies.

139
00:09:21.799 --> 00:09:26.440
Conduct your reasoning skills and speak with experts who experience

140
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:30.120
the problem firsthand. If you can find someone like that,

141
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:33.320
it will save you time in the long run. It's

142
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.440
true every reason you give for your decision is really

143
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:40.759
a roundabout way. As matter of fact, I would say,

144
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:45.799
a big roundabout way of achieving your goal and your result.

145
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:49.519
Remember when I always say everything has to do with everything,

146
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:52.879
and it's so true. The reasoning process has to do

147
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:56.519
with your decisions. Your decisions have to do with your results.

148
00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:59.480
Your results come from your actions that you take, and
