As the years goes by, we have to make certain decision in our lives. It can be a major decision or a minor one. Whatever its category, we always have basis for deciding. Is there any chance that your decision making has been influence by anyone? It can be a family member, a relative, a teacher or someone you have seen on TV. Please share who is the most influential person in your live and mention always what is her/his impact on your life. Thanks.

I guess there are many people that have influenced my life. Not only my family but also friends, teachers and artists. Some of the most influential people in my live would have to be my parents and my grandmother, allthough it's hard to decide who is the most influential out of the three of them. It was allready hard to narrow it down to these three people as I feel my current partner has a lot of influence on me aswell, but I (off course) have known my parents and grandmother longer and therefore I chose them.

It will be wrong if i will say that no i make my decision by own ,i have no influence of anyone upon my decision , there are many people who have influence upon me at the time of decision making , on the top is my god and then my father , mother , siblings and my love also . All the decisions made by me have some influence of the people i mentioned above , god's influence is always there as whatever happen it happens upon his will and then depending on the decision the people influence is there.

I have more than one influential person in life. It's really just all the good people around me. If I see that they're good, that they're close to the better person that I want to become and they do something that I find shows good morals, they will influence what actions I take. I'll remember what they did or said and I'll use that to help me make my decisions. I don't usually just follow one person's opinions or actions to make decisions. I tend to compare and then decide which way is better. I think everyone influences me in many different ways, whether they be good or bad. It's just who I let influence me the most that really matters. I think that the person that has influenced my family the most would have to have been my grandmother (R.I.P.). Without her, our family would not be in the US today, or at least not for a very long time. Half of us wouldn't be Christian; we would all be Buddhists or non-religious still and unsaved. She went through a lot of hardships until she was finally laid to rest and I miss her every single day. She taught me to care a lot about people, especially the elderly. She was definitely one of the most influential people that I know that influenced our family.

I consider no one influencial than me myself.I have my goals that keeps driving me to move on. I know well what I wanted, I have the determination to work hard for it, I know how to stand with my own decision, and I have faith in everything I do. With all of these, I influence my own.
