Decisions often prove to be the crucial turning points of our lives, so a person should never make any decision alone. Do you agree with this statement?

I a bit differ to the above statement that a person should never make decisions alone. Decision making needs to be weighed on a variety of factors. It is to be understood why a majority of decisions are taken by parents in one's childhood, like taking admission in school, buying clothes or buying toys, just because a child is immature. Parents can understand well what is better for their child. As it grows, it starts understanding life and becomes well-aware of its existence and wants. Gradually, it gains enough maturity to realise where it wants to lead its life. Important decisions like pursuing a career are already given serious thoughts by the individual, and he only seeks the seal of approval from his parents. It is seen that many successful people have always used their sixth sense for making crucial decisions, though sometimes not approved by their loved ones. Taking advice or second opinion, however, may help if a person is not sure of his decision or is in dilemma. Many people argue that a person may be carried away by emotions and take wrong decisions if he does not take opinion of the experienced people, especially in the decisions like selecting a life partner. For them, I would say that it is not the fault of lone decision making, but it is the way of decision making that may lead to a disaster. You need a good rhythm between your heart and mind to make your life musical. Influence and inspiration are enough for help in decisions. Even logical or combined decisions prove to be wrong. Every individual more or less has a hidden desire to live on his own terms. Even if decisions would be wrong, an individual would always have the satisfaction of taking his decisions himself and would not regret.
