Life Skills & Leadership: Unit 2, Session 3: Making Decisions | Page 47 of 127B. Summary
Encourage participants to choose one question card from each PAUSE category to keep as a reminder of
what they might ask when they are making a decision. Conclude by saying:
“The more often you remember to PAUSE, the more options you will see and the happier you will be
about your decisions. We will refer to PAUSE again when we learn about creative thinking and solving
problems in our future sessions.”References:
The concept of using Head, Heart, Hands, and Hope in making decisions has been adapted from:
The Council on Quality and Leadership. “Making Choices: Supporting People in Decision Making.”
