For me, thinking is very easy... almost too easy. I spend way too much time in my head which results in me never really making a set decision. Alot of the time I end up overthinking my decision or my problem or the way I handled the problem... it's an exhausting process!! I think (what's new) instead of always thinking of what I should do... I should do it! At the end of the day, if it feels right, it probably is.

Something I had a hard decision with was when I should go deeper into the ocean to get a better wave while surfing. I ended up going farther and I got to the sandbar, but then I slipped into a drop off, which led to the deep part of the ocean. Luckily my dad was with me, and he brought me back up to my board. I need to do more acting because then I could've thought of where I was going before I slipped. I know now to act before I do something, so next time I won't slip off the snadbar.

When making a moral decision I don't really take the time to think about the decision I have to make and I end upmake a bad decision or I end up regretting my decision because I didn't really think about what decision I should make before actually making the decision. I need to think more because more than the other steps because I usually act before I actually think about the decision I made.

When it comes to making hard decisions, I most definitely need to work on talking more. There is a lot of times where I don't like to talk to someone about my thoughts. Mostly because I fear that they will think my thoughts don't make sense. So, sometimes I leave that step out of my decision making. Talking is a very important because it helps other people understand what is going through my mind. Talking to someone can always help me make a better decision.

In making a moral decision, I need to talk more to others and pray a little more. I need to express my thoughts to someone whether it be God or any other human. I had to make decisions of what to do with my time or how to be a better person. I always just think about my life or compare my thoughts to others. I need to communicate my thoughts to others like my family and friends so I can make a good decision. I always feel the need to do stuff myself, but I need to remember that other people can help you. I need to talk about how this decision can affect them. I think about what is good for them instead of asking. I need to see that I am not alone all the time. I require other perspectives. I will try to improve on these and hope it will help me better my life. I will trust my loved ones and God.

When making moral decisions I have the hardest time with is talking. I don't usually like talking to adults about things, not even my parents. I try to figure things out by myself, which isn't always the best way. I don't usually ask for advice from others, and I won't lie, I'm pretty secretive about A LOT of stuff in my life. I don't tell people I know like my friends about how I felt at a certain time in my life, whether it was yesterday or last week. Like I said, I try to figure things out on my own. Sometimes if I start to get in my head about something and start to name all the wrongs things about something I worked on, I ask for other people's opinions. It helps relax me a little. Then I know what to add or take out. I want to know their point of view in certain things. Asking for someone's opinion on something will help me figure out what decision to make.

I need to talk to more people when I make a moral decision. When something important, like a test or a project, is coming up, I start to overthink things. I would ask my parents if I could stay up late to study, but they keep saying no. I could ask a teacher to explain things again. I could also ask if my cousins could help me study. Talking to others can make you nervous, but it's better for me to understand things. Talking to close friends might help me, if I don't think my parents would understand.

I need to do more praying and comparing when making decisions. I will talk about praying. Whenever I make a decision, I think about it, talk, and act, but I don't pray to God. I don't ask for guidance and will usually go off of my own thoughts. If I asked for guidance from God, I wouldn't be alone in making decisions and might not make as many mistakes. I just need to pray more.

The reason I chorus parry is. I really don't pray. I will do everything ells on the list. But for me I don't. (Turn to the Holy Spirit in prayer. Asking for guidance to make the right decision

When it comes to making decisions, I need to talk more with trusted people, and seek help from them. I'm a really big thinker and I tend to over think asking a trusted person for their advice on the situation. This, for me personally, is hard because I may get scared or nervous about talking about the decision to someone who may know me a lot. One of the first reactions I have is thinking what will the person think of the actions I've performed, or what will they think about me? It honestly can be scary, especially if the situation is extreme, or I don't know if the situation is extreme or not. From experience, talking the situation out can be difficult, but can set you free in the end. For example, when I do certain actions, I tend to think that it may be wrong, but not too wrong, so sometimes I seek counsel from my mom and dad to clarify the situation for me.

I think that I need to do more thinking. I think this because a lot I don't think before I speak. Sometimes I don't think about the question and I just answer. When I do this I could make a bad choice or in school get the question wrong. Also I need to do more of this because if I am having a conversation with someone and I don't think before I speak I might say something rude.

One step that I think I should work on is Talking and Thinking. Instead of my problem being talking to a trusted adult or friend, I think mine would be saying things in the moment. Instead of thinking about what I'm going to say in excruciating detail, I say what is on my mind and how I feel in that moment. Sometimes that might not always end up in the best result, especially if I'm sad or upset about something. It may also hurt others and make the problem even worse. Instead of being in the moment and saying things out of sadness or anger, I should think about how it might affect the situation and others in it.

When it comes to making moral decisions, I need to start talking to someone more than the others steps. Sometimes I get worked up about making decisions because I do not talk to someone and ask them for advice. People that can help are friends, family members, and even co-workers. I can ask for input from trusted people and get different points of view. This way, I know whether or not I am making a decision that will lead me closer to God or not.

Look at the five steps in making a moral decision on pg 219 in your textbook. Write 5 sentences about the one that you could do more often and why. To help you answer, think of a decision you've had to make before and how that step could help.
