Heart Based Decision Making

From a recent blog post by Dan Rockwell comes a really unique method of decision making.  As opposed to traditional methods of decision making, Rockwell suggests we also look inside our hearts and answer the following:

What does courage/confidence tell you to do?
What does humility tell you to do?
What does integrity/honesty/openness tell you to do?
What does flexibility/agility tell you to do?
What does perseverance tell you to do?
What does compassion/kindness tell you to do?
What does decisiveness tell you to do?
What does respect for others tell you to do?
What does passion tell you to do?

What does seeking the best interests of others tell you to do?

This isn't the end-all of decision making (writing out all of the pluses and minuses still works for this scribe), but it is another factor to weigh into the equation.

Pretty enlightening stuff, especially when applied.
