DECISION MAKING (using Soccer analogy)

Neymar: If Messi has the ball I immediately run to the 18-yard area because I know he will cross the ball.
Bale: If CR7 has the ball I immediately stop running because I know he won't pass to me.
Martial: If Rooney has the ball I immediately turn and start defending because I know its going to result to a counter attack (as he would lose the ball to an opponent)
Giroud: If Ozil has the ball, I try to find a place to hide but he will always find me with a pass. I'm tired of him.
From the above you can actually give a name for the types of possible decision making style based on the analogy I used.
1. INDIVIDUAL/SELFISH decisions (CR7)
2. TEAM BASED/GROUP decisions (Ozil)
3. PROGRAMMED decisions (Messi)
4.  NON PROGRAMMED decisions (Rooney)

There are actually much more and many other types of decision and there are several players I can use to denote them; such as Antonio Valencia decision, Walcott decision, Eden Hazard decision etc..
MORAL LESSONS: 
Aside from trying to create a joke/fun using soccer; this is actually reality. the above write-up is all about DECISION!!!
Your decisions about everything (spiritual, physical, emotional, social, financial) will always have a particular pattern or flow of direction. The above mentioned names all ready know the decision style of their team mates. Same goes in the corporate environment/workplace. Your colleague, superior (boss, manager, etc) already know your decision making style. This can have a long way in the way people see you. It could give you a positive image or a negative image.

Decisions also determine the direction in which you run/move/go. Some decisions make you and the entire team in which it impact upon move forward (Neymar), some make you move backward (Martial), some make you stop moving (Bale), while some make you confused all together.

Question is: do your friends, work associates, colleagues, bosses know the decision you will make as regards any matter/event??
Are you predictable??? you should be predictable because people find it easier trusting predictable people.
P.S: I prefer the Ozil-based decision style. Which is your preferred option???

Thank you and have a wonderful day.

HOW TO TURN YOUR WINDOWS PC INTO A WI-FI HOTSPOT

Windows can turn your PC into a wireless hotspot, allowing it to share its wired or wireless Internet connection with other wireless devices. But how you set it up depends on what version of Windows you’re running. Here’s how it all works. N.B: If you can’t get the built-in Windows Wi-Fi hotspot working, you should try using Connectify Hotspot instead — it’s a completely foolproof Wi-Fi hotspot with tons of options and a nice interface Connectify Hotspot is great if you’re at a hotel that charges per device, or if you’re on a plane and you connect your laptop but don’t want to pay more to connect your phone. If you pay for the Pro version you can even use your PC as a Wi-Fi repeater or a wired router, or share a tethered connection off your phone It’s really more of a power user tool, but if you’re looking for a good solution, Hotspot is free to try out, and the basic version is free with some limitations. Share a Wired or Wireless Internet Connection in Windows 10
