Thank goodness this isn’t the norm today but this was true for girls of my generation. It used to be, if you asked an 11-year-old preteen what she wanted on her pizza, she decisively said, pepperoni.

Making decisions is essential to success. Without a decision, we cannot follow through and complete.

Wouldn’t it be a better strategy to give up on perfection and simply allow the screw-ups to occur?
