Honestly, I’ve always struggled with making decisions. 😅 I used to say “YES” to everything—whether it was a request, a favor, or an invitation. Not because I wanted to, but because I simply didn’t know how to say “NO.”
One of my friends once told me:
“If you don’t know how to say NO, you don’t know how to LIVE.”
That hit hard. 💡 It made me realize that decision-making isn’t just about choosing between options—it’s about taking control of your life. So, I decided to seek wisdom from some of the greatest minds and found these powerful quotes on decision-making.
