Intellectual decisions

There are two types of way to make decisions. One way is intellectual decisions which is when a person makes a decision based on logic. The second way to make a decision is to make a decision based on emotion. Everybody in the world makes there decisions either with logic or emotion. I personally make a lot of decisions off of emotions.

People might make decisions on emotion but in some situations they have to make intellectual decisions. One situation someone might have to make a intellectual decision is when they are on jury duty. They have to make a decision on logics and facts instead of making it on emotion. They have to make a decision on facts on jury duty because that's how you find someone innocent or guilty, and a person can't find someone innocent just cause you feel bad for someone. You have make a intellectual decision in that situation because that's the right thing to do.

Another situation where a person has to make an intellectual decision is when someone's a boss and has to fire an employee. Say the employee that the boss his firing is his friend. Let's also say his friend is horrible at his job and is hurting his company. The boss can't make a emotional decision because then he might keep him because that's his friend. If he keeps him there the company will continue to have bad losses. That's why the boss has to the right thing by firing him. So again the boss will have to make an intellectual decision because it's the right thing to do. A negative impact on making an intellectual decision in this situation is the boss might lose his friend after firing him.
