a lot of my friends are very influenced by other people i think that, that is a bad habit especially if the influence is bad why cant some people make their own decisions? and why are people easily influenced by the bad? i guess it has more to do with will power than anything i for one was born by myself therfore i have my own brain and make my own decisions

Decision making really makes us insane thinking to what is the best or the worst outcome of such. Thus, we tend to ask for some ideas,even consult our decisions to our family, our friends or other people whom are dear to us. This ideas should be weighed to balance your decisions and should never be the answer to whatever decisions you have to make. You have to consider the pro's and con's of their suggestions with your own belief that would make a good choice.We are still the one responsible knowing much better of what is good for ourselves not the people that surrounds us. Any decisions we have made is the answer to which where we will be into. We have the freewill of choice.
