What’s the Right Decision?

Throughout the day we are making constant conscious and unconscious decisions.

 

I think I speak for almost all of us when I say that if we had to decide whether or not to get hurt today, we would all choose to go home injury-free. Yet injuries still happen.

Nearly all of those injuries occur because we consciously put ourselves into a situation that we know, or have been told in the past, could cause an injury.

Very rarely during an injury investigation do we say “Hmmm, never seen that before.”

The question I ask is, why?

Why is any other motivating factor more important than not getting hurt?

With everything you do, at home, at work, at play, make the decision NOT to get hurt.

Remember it only takes being wrong once to be dead permanently.

Make the right decision.
