Identify a decision you have made recently. in a paragraph of 125 words, explain the process you used to make the decision. share how you feel about the decision you made: was it successful? was it the best possible decision? describe how using the seven-step decision-making process might have changed the outcome of your decision.

One decision I have made recently was leaving my old job for a new one. I felt very tired with my old job due to its work time (11 p.m. to 7 a.m.) that I decided to do a day time job. I didn't follow any process in coming up with my decision. I just gathered some information on the internet or asked my friends whether they know any vacant day time jobs. I immediately applied for the first job that was recommended to me by my friend without researching about the company's background. Luckily, I got hired immediately. Fast forward to three months later, I found out that the company's task was taking toll on my health due to its tedious over time requirement. How I wish I could get back to my old job. I feel a bit sad about the decision of leaving my old job immediately without thinking twice about the consequences of my action. So, I think that my decision was not the best possible one. If I were to decide in the future again, I'd follow the seven-step decision making process. I could have gathered more relevant information about the job I was applying for and I could have backed out in the first place. Then, I could have identified some alternatives, such as other jobs that are less tedious when it comes to overtime work.

activity

the category "activity" includes exercise, rest and sleep. there is much confusion about the role that exercise and sleep play in health. like diet, activity is an area where each person can take control.    

vigorous physical activity puts demands on all body systems to work harder. the body responds to these demands by becoming stronger and more efficient. the health benefits of exercise include improved metabolism, increased muscle and bone strength, more efficient cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) function, larger lung capacity, tension reduction, and improved sleep.

the most efficient way to obtain these benefits is through regular aerobic exercise. aerobic exercise involves the large muscles of the body, particularly the legs. examples include brisk walking, jogging, swimming and bike riding. exercise is most enjoyable when it is incorporated into recreation and becomes a regular part of your normal daily activities.

the benefits of regular aerobic activity are becoming more widely understood and accepted; however, the benefits of sleep are often ignored. sleep deprivation can suppress the body's immune system, and has been associated with depression. healing activity is accentuated during sleep. two aspects of sleep must be considered: quality and quantity.

many people just don't allow enough time for sleep. they regard it as a waste of time and use drugs such as caffeine to stimulate their exhausted bodies into action. some people allow plenty of time for sleep, but the quality of their sleep is poor. regular exercise is often effective in people improve their ability to fall asleep. physically fit people spend more of their sleeping time in deep sleep, and in rem (rapid eye movement), or dreaming sleep, the more restorative stages of sleep. people who are getting enough sleep wake spontaneously and feel refreshed.

psychology
