Improving Pros and Cons Thinking

Listing pros and cons is a helpful decision-making tool.

First, decide what you want and what you don’t want.

Next, weigh each pro and con on a scale of 0-10 by asking: How important is this pro or con relative to what I want or don’t want.

Last, add up each column.

If one total is double the other total then that may be the way to go. Caution: The options you have chosen may not be the only options!

Good luck

A True Labour of Love

Sometimes we are fortunate to come across a genuine, thoughtful labour of love. Here is an inspiring example: A beautifully decorated garden seat in a retirement village in Hillcrest near Durban in South Africa. The artist is a (clearly very kind) professional painter.
