#8 - Biblical Principles For Making Wise Decisions

#8 — Have you considered the possible outcomes for your course of action?

“The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish tears it down with her own hands.” (Prov. 14:1)

Before making the decision assess the potential risks

Do the “long math.” Consider a contingency plan. What would, or could, you do if it fails and it all “goes south” on you? Remember the age-old advice, “Never risk more than you are willing and able to lose!”

The prudent person considers their steps

“The naïve believes everything, but the prudent man considers his steps.” (Prov. 14:15)

“A prudent man sees evil and hides himself, the naïve proceed and pay the penalty.” (Prov. 27:12)
