Declaration

Good decision making is choice making.

A decision is a declaration.

‘Here I am.’

‘Here’s who I am.’

‘Here’s where I’m going.’

The moment we make that decision - our declaration - we raise our heads above the parapet of our sheltering trench of anonymity.

And wait for the sound of response.

Of the crack-whizz of the incoming sniper rounds.

Or of applause.

Or worst of all - Silence.
