One is seen to be firm, strong minded, earnest, certain, determined and resolute when he is decisive. To reach the level of firm decision, it is said to pass through a thorough analysis, deliberation, consultation and a mature and rationale mind set.

We do this especially with the most important things we have to decide on like the person to have a relationship with, the person to marry, where to live, what job to take, how many children to have, what business to undertake, and a lot more.

In my case, especially in one of the careers that I have chosen which is in politics, I have firmly decided to run again in 2010 but I am not yet decided as of yet on just going for re-election or to listen to individuals, sectors and groups that are urging me to run for a higher post. I was elected at age 27, the youngest City Official right now and I’m just on my first term not withstanding such I am blessed and honored to be considered as a serious and viable candidate for a higher post. I am thankful of the warm support and great trust of the people. I have a few months more to go before I make the final decision. I have so many factors to consider such as my family, my chances, the support of the people, my readiness for the post and the responsibilities with it, the finances needed, the organization, the group I would run with, the plans and programs after possibly winning the position and most importantly what is best for the City of Iloilo. For now, I will continue my work for the City and continue with my consultations with the people. I will listen to them. My political strength comes from the people and I owe my post to them.

Indecision sometimes is good because it gives time for one to think about things well before making as life changing decision and be committed and firm to that decision whatever the results will be.
