People are willing to avoid making important decisions that are an argument between two people ends with the flipping of a coin. Making the right choice has always had a value in society regardless of the expectations of society. It may be the reason why a person aims always to say that the decision made they made was right even though wrong. In the traditional African society, decisions were made mostly by a council of elders or the man of the house (in most cases male). As time went by, governments took over of the making of decisions. Today, most decisions must abide by the rule of law which require every citizen to abide by failure to obey the laws may result in imprisonment or fines or both.
Flipping a coin involves throwing a coin into the air and the side that faces upwards when the coin lands on the ground or any chosen surface is the winner. The principles, techniques, and procedures of throwing the coin are all aimed at coming up with a decision. Flipping of a coin in most cases is between two persons who conflict with a decision that they should make.
There are no basic rules that determine how a coin should be flipped. It follows only one simple rule: the side which a person chose will determine the outcome of the decision. If two people decide that whoever chose heads will not clean dishes, that will be the ultimate decision when the coin lands. It seems the fairest and quick way to decide because it is tough to cheat since all currencies have two sides.
It is strange how one would opt to decide the use of a coin. It is a mere illusion that tricks one into not making decisions. It is not a good way of promoting good decision making. For example, if one base the decision to rob a grocery with a gun instead of using their money to purchase groceries on the flipping of a coin, the one would be a dangerous place to live. People have lost houses because of bets that are not worth it in the first place. If persons from a century ago could catch a glimpse of the world as it is right now, some would go bonkers at how people take the decision making lightly.
Everyone wants to make the right decisions. A person may have problems, for example, low self-esteem or going through a divorce and she may feel that she is too vulnerable to make certain important decisions. Before passing judgment, it is essential to understand one’s point of view first and the reasons why he is hesitant to make decisions. Ultimately, everyone has the choice to make decisions in the way he deems fit.
