Does Every Decision Have Consequences?

I do think that every decision has consequences. The challenge is to not think of consequences as only being negative. Every decision has consequences it is just a matter of whether they are positive or negative in nature. Too many times when decisions are made there is no big picture thinking going on. When the big picture is not taken into consideration there is no thought given to the future impact, residual impact or external impact of the decision. Decisions have an impact that are more widespread than they are given credit for. The critical thinking process gives a basis for looking at the information that is relevant to the decision but we need to make sure we are anticipating and evaluating the consequences of the decision also.
