PSY105 wk8

When we have to make a big decision, there are moments when it feels  like our heart may rule all and we make decisions based upon an  emotional response.  However there may be other decisions, where emotion  did not play any role and it was a logical decision based on a set of  well-reasoned facts.  What do you prefer?  Do you generally use logic  and reason when you make decisions?  Do you rely on your emotion,  intuition or "gut"?  

In your discussion post share a moment  when you either used emotion to make a decision OR you used logic.   What was the decision and why do you think you acted that way?  How does  that connect with what we learn about thinking and problem solving in  Chapter 8?
