today we watched a movie on decision making. The comedian in the film was Michael Pretecharh. He talked with young people about the process of decision making and how to make the right ones. He first discussed how some times adults forget how hard it was to grow up, and that sometimes young people need to learn from their mistakes. He believed there was three main parts in decision making; Vision, Initiative, and perspective. VIP. Vision had to do with who you wanted to be. Initiative dealt with making good choices. Perspective was not getting caught up in all the bad things. he strongly believes that if you have a good vision about yourself then you'll make good choices. At any point in ones life though you can change your vision about yourself for the better. Sometimes young people are afraid to say no even though they want to because they are afraid of how others will perceive them. He also stressed the fact that it is okay to have problems, because everyone has them, thats what makes us human. It's not okay if you ignore your problems and don't try and fix them yourself, ask for help. People should never forget that laughing gets you through the hard times. People need to realize that there are consequences for the actions you take.
