When was the last time you made a decision? In all probability, it was moments ago. Making decisions is an inescapable necessity. Were you consciously aware of having made a decision---and, if so, were you aware of the process you used? Decision making is one-third logical and two-thirds psychological. As adults, we have been formed by the many influences in our environment. These include experiences in which we have actively participated, such as formal education, supervised job training, and employment. Other influences arose outside our control, yet they exerted an equal---if not stronger---role in our development. Collectively, these influences give direction to how we make decisions. The requirements for making a decision are deceptively simple: knowledge of the past, present knowledge, and awareness of future possibilities. In order to arrive at a decision, you must first consider those factors in the past that are relevant to the pending decision. Next, you will want to consider conditions that exist at the moment. Before making your final decision, you must give careful thought to what the results of your choice might be. Reviewing the three requirements, it would appear that decision making is a relatively easy process to execute. Its simplicity should allow you not only to make a decision, but to make the decision that is the most appropriate. Yet, we know that this is not always true. Relevant and accurate information is essential. In job hunting, two major sources of information serve as a basis for decision making: knowledge of the world of work in which you will function, and self-knowledge. Knowing yourself is the key that opens the door through which you will travel on your journey to fearless job hunting.
