Our Heart is our Decision HQ

The state of one’s heart inevitably shapes one’s life; it is ultimately the place where everything is decided.
- John O’Donohue (To Bless the Space Between Us)

The state of your heart’s well being affects your decision making.

When my wife said something that upset me (heart is a bad state) I know my attitude towards her change. I don’t speak kindly to her, I do not express gratitude for the things she does and I her actions with a wrong intention. Soon we are in a big quarrel.

But if I my heart is good state then I am the most romantic person on earth.

So my heart’s well being is a determining factor to making decisions.

The New Testament from the Bible teaches
Where your treasure is, there is your heart also.

So if you observe your own decisions, you will know where the heart is because that is what you treasure.

So ask yourself
What do you treasure? What do you value so much?
Because your decisions will flow from what is full in your heart.
