The world's most powerful skill:
Effective decision-making.
But colleges eat up 4 years of our lives and don't even bother teaching it.
Instead, here are 10 quick lessons from psychology that will upgrade your decision-making in the next 5 minutes:
Thankful for trials. Through afflictions a loving God tutors me, allows me to gain experience, learn faith & endurance, & develop compassion for others. I don’t usually appreciate a trial while I am in the middle of it, but with time & perspective I see how I grew. #GiveThanks
Thankful for the USA & the chance to serve in uniform for 26 years. Deployed twice for #OEF in 2004–2005 & 2011–2012. My #veteran father, gf, g-gf, g-g-gf, and g-g-g-gf also served in the U.S. Army. I honor their legacy & their wives & children who supported them. #GiveThanks
(3 of 3) The Orem Temple is under construction. It's exciting to prepare for a temple so close to home. It is worth every effort to enter the temple & receive the blessings and ordinances there. They allow covenant family relationships to endure beyond the grave. #GiveThanks
(2 of 3) My wife & I were married in the temple, and now we see our children being joined to their spouses there as well. We’re thankful for the peace that is found in the temple and the power that goes with us when we leave its sacred walls. #GiveThanks
(1 of 3) Thankful for temples. The faithful worshiped in temples anciently & today we receive instruction and sacred ordinances for ourselves and for departed ancestors. As a young boy I went with my parents and sisters to be sealed as a family. #GiveThanks
Thankful for 12 children, in-laws, & grandchildren. They make life worth living. Each has gifts in areas such as the arts, expression, culinary, athletics, education, service, & faith. We have our challenges & at times see things very differently, but for all this we #GiveThanks.
I’m beyond thankful for Lori, at my side for 33+ years. I’m inspired by her beauty—both on the inside and the outside—her resilience, and love for God, for me, and for our 12 children. She is the first to jump in to serve others when she sees a need. #GiveThanks#luckiestmanalive
Thankful for the beauty of the earth and the majesty of the heavens, all created for us by the loving hand of God. My photos of Shoshone Falls, Idaho, in July 2020 and total solar eclipse near Rigby, Idaho, on Aug. 21, 2017. #givethanks
I'm thankful that God speaks today through living prophets. Enjoy this message and take two invitations from President @NelsonRussellM: 1. Turn social media into your personal gratitude journal. 2. Unite in thanking God through daily prayer. #givethanks https://t.co/4cYk4gKEhp
"You see this?"
"Oh, yeah. What's that?"
"Looks like a dude in a tube."
Last night our AH-64 Apache helicopter pilots helped locate one of the two missing kayakers in the water near Antelope Island. #AlwaysReady#AlwaysThere#UtahGuard

Today is the 43rd anniversary of one of the greatest plays on baseball: Rick Monday rescues the American flag from two who wished to desecrate it. I met Rick two years ago to thank him in person. He signed this poster and my old Rick Monday glove for me. @Dodgers#classact#hero
