Decisions making is the hardest thing to do when a person is confused. So when come to making the right decisions, it is even harder. But self improvement is about making decisions and making the right ones.
To have a positive change in your life, you have to decide you want a positive change, and this in itself is making a decision.
You cannot just hope you will have a positive change in your life, or just wishing it will come, you have to decide to take a positive action towards this change, pursue it aggressively, and stick to it no matter what.
But on the other hand, making New Year resolutions are not decisions, because it is just a wishful thinking. If you only want a positive change during New Year, you will be most disappointed. You have to want positive changes everyday of your life, not only during New Year.
Make it a point to stick to it. It is fine even if you fail to keep at it in the beginning, as long as you make a decision that each time you fall, you will stand up again, again and again.
A person who is getting sick and tire and fed up with his or her current situation will more likely to take positive steps and stick to it compared to a person who is lukewarm and still living in the comfort zone.
Decisions require 100% of our commitment, not 99%, not even 99.999%, it has to be 100%. Think about this, when a person is almost there, is actually not there at all. How can you be almost there at one place? Either you are there or not there, there is no such thing as I am almost there.
If you find that making positive changes in your life is difficult, and hard to stick to it, you may also get help from coaching programs, audio programs, self help or self improvement courses, audio programs and books. Learn from the successful people, they are not there because they are smarter then you, they are there because they have once made a positive decision to change and carry it through.
Brian Tracy, a successful motivator and trainer said this,
“The fastest way for you to succeed is by piggy-backing
on the good advice and counsel of men and women who have
already spent years learning how to succeed.
When you do this on a regular and systematic basis,
you will open up doors of opportunity and possibilities for you
that today you cannot even imagine.”
Successful people are always looking for ways to improve themselves and are aware that regardless how good they think they are, there is always room for improvement. Such people know that happiness and fulfillment is based on their consistent growth and contribution based on self-improvement ideas.
So why not learn from them? If we know how to go about it, we would be already up there and not down here. It is not that successful people do not have any problems, but they know how to react and how to handle problems better then we do, and 10 out of 10 successful people are avid readers. So get yourself geared up by reading and learning.

There is a lot of energy around decision making in the blogosphere right now. I wrote about it in my post What is Decision Making?.
It really does seem that making decisions is a key skill for creative people and anyone else interested in personal development.

A book I own gives reminds me of Self Development. Fables From The Mudd by Erik Quisling. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I read this book and was really surprised by the content. It has very few words but will have you laughing out loud as you read it.
Check it out. You’ll be glad you did and it will help you through anything!

Thanks for the fine article. As a part of my self improvement plan, I have accountability
partners to assist when I hit a rough patch. Again, thanks and plan to check back more often
Hello Ron,
Thank you for your comment and visiting my blog. You are very smart to surround
yourself with people who can help you and visa versa.
I noticed through my years of reading self-development books and interaction with
some successful people that they all also surround themselves with mentors, coaches,
and alot of self-help materials through their journey while reaching their goals.
Great, do visit again.
My best to you
Gamy
