Consequence is consistent with cause, no matter what!

Consequence is consistent with cause, no matter what! This is known to everyone, still I feel like repeating. What we are now is result of what we think, what we read, what see, whom we speak, whom we work with, the events we involved with and so on, which includes the entire world directly or indirectly. When the whole world is contributing towards us, what we need to do? Just manage where you want to get involved directly and where indirectly, because priority matters which in turn is outsourcing.

This is gist of 2 books I have read long back Outliers By Malcom Gladwell and Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

Logic and Observation both are important

Most of the time decision can be of two types "Logic Lead" and "Observation Lead". Logic lead decision making is internal and based on the facts/information someone already know. Where as sometimes we don't need to think so much to conclude a decision rather need to observe the context and even the question carefully to get the answer.

In logic lead decision making the biggest mistake someone can do is ignoring to consider the targeted audience, after all audience is who evaluates the quality of your decision. But decision maker is solely responsible for the longterm effect of the decision be it good or bad.
