Performing ceremonies makes me feel like I have a say in how my life turns out. It makes me feel like I have some form of control in how it all plays out. Taking part in a ceremony means I am asking for help. I put in my request, back it up with the power of my creative intention, and then I try to surrender to the weave already in progress. At least when I am clever, I surrender. Because how I get there or how quickly I arrive is best left in more experienced hands!

Have you ever experienced a decision situation that was hard to come to grips with? Did you ever feel a need to improve your decision-making skills? Is this something where you feel that you have not learned enough practical and useful methods? In that case, you are not alone! Even though decision-making is both considered and actually is a very important skill in modern work-life as well as in private life, these skills are not to any reasonable extent taught in schools at any level. No wonder many people do indeed feel the need to improve but have a hard time finding out how. This book is an attempt to remedy this shortcoming of our educational systems and possibly also of our common, partly intuition-based, decision culture. Intuition is not at all bad, quite the contrary, but it has to co-exist with rationality. We will show you how. Methods for decision-making should be of prime concern to any individual or organisation, even if the decision processes are not always explicitly or even consciously formulated. All kinds of organisations, as well as individuals, must continuously make decisions of the most varied nature in order to prosper and attain their objectives. A large part of the time spent in any organisation, not least at management levels, is spent gathering, processing, and compiling information for the purpose of making decisions supported by that information. The same interest has hitherto not been shown for individual decision-making, even though large gains would also be obtained at a personal level if important personal decisions were better deliberated. This book aims at changing that and thus attends to both categories of decision-makers. This book will take you through a journey starting with some history of decision-making and analysis and then go through easy-to-learn ways of structuring decision information and methods for analysing the decision situations, beginning with simple decision situations and then moving on to progressively harder ones, but never losing sight of the overarching goal that the reader should be able to follow the progression and being able to carry out similar decision analyses in real-life situations.

A REAL LIFE STORY A Journey of faith – Believing in the impossible! CHAPTER – 01 – Far from the truth Year 1990: Mozarilma Maurício Maia, she was better known as Moza. At the time, he dreamed of marrying a rich, handsome man and spending his honeymoon in the Caribbean islands. On the other hand, as time went by, part of his family, as mentioned above, entered the process of conversion to Christianity, where first his mother and then part of his sisters. Anyway, in the face of all this movement that began with his family, it could be said that it was already God s work; In fact, there was already a kind of pride about Moza s life, if not an excessive conjuncture of the false appearance of grandeur, so the feeling of contempt for family and friends became apparent, since she only wanted to be close to people that had a better financial condition. During this period, Moza had been working for some time in a company called - Duarte & Representações Ltda. “DUCOR”, however, his behavior became such a boundless and unprecedented vanity, rose to his heart more than arrogance and arrogance, something much greater, because his particular world was only a small closed cycle of less of ten people, which could not be called friendship. But Moza also observed that one by one of his family members were converting to the Gospel of Christ. Thus, when she is at home, living together becomes increasingly difficult with her family, that is, both the sisters and her mother, because, constantly, during domestic or personal chores, gospel music was common”. And also sang along, and that would make Moza apparently angry and angry, first, because she didn t accept it, and second, because he believed it was a way to provoke her. So, motivated by the cause of the indifferent situation, Moza decided to spend as little time as possible at home, choosing, therefore, when it came to Fridays, that is, after the end of working hours used to schedule several outings with her friends from the most often Benair and Manair.
