Gambling activities as a path to curb irresponsible decision making in adults.

[Oluwa-btc]

Some people who have problems with making real life decisions as per making a one pick and sticking with it, should try to use more structured methods with gambling as the focus activity, that is considering they love the idea of gambling already, because I believe that it would help replace every emotional reaction with systematic analysis, which is a core definition of disciplined decision-making.
‎
Gambling activities make one to become hardened and swift and when controlled, it calls for more discipline at making real life decisions.
Although, it is a pure game of chance and could lead to addiction quickly, if one happens to control it by defining it in an environment as a high skill, and with high feedback, with controlled risk management activity, I am certain it could work well and be effective to curb irresponsible decision making in a young adult who is going through life confused.
‎Don't forget that the focus of using gambling activities here mandates that it must be done in an environment with structure and a feedback team or system to take note.

Your opinion is welcomed!

As a matter of fact,you admonish one to gamble often to curb irresponsible decisions.You really can't measure responsibility from steady gambling.The thing here is steady gambling does not curb irresponsible decisions.Instead,it often increases the risk of irresponsible decisions, because gambling itself is based on risk-taking, impulse,and reward-seeking behaviour.Young people always believe it works that way saying it teaches discipline.

I disagree with the opinion expressed in the initial post of this thread. Gambling certainly does not make a person faster, especially if you are betting on sports. After all, you can bet on a match that will take place in a week and then sit around all week waiting for the match to take place and your bet to be settled. This type of game certainly does not foster speed and flexibility, but you will still be participating in gambling. It may not be gambling, but computer games that can contribute to the development of decision-making speed, as this is more pronounced there. Gambling can teach you how to manage your money.

The dismay creeps in some hours after the game when the player goes to his/her feelings to consider how they felt while gambling. If what the player felt led them to make multiple mistakes the feeling would be sad afterwards and when proven other wise, in a scenerio where the gamers focus on doing the right thing, they'll feel just ok and would work hard on retaining a sweet memory of their gambling experience. This reactions do reccur and in all its greatness stays to apprehend players based on how they feel about their gaming decisions.

Anything we turn into a feeling seems excellent to me; that's what remains of casinos Those who don't want to learn will continue losing money This type of thread is very useful for opening the eyes of those players who don't take themselves seriously when playing. I know you should play and enjoy it, but it's also worthwhile to learn; that's what saves us from spending so much money.

If it is done in an environment which is controlled and money is not involved then it can be a nice experiment to see if the concept actually works. Why not try doing this by setting up an app and following it with this?

But most people might make life decisions just based on what they have experienced and what they want to see in future. So I dont think gambling is the correct way to approch such situations.

Still try building a website or app for this, if you are interested and see how it works. It can be a learning experience for you.

Those who are open-minded and willing to correct their actions will save a lot in terms of losing their money, as those shared stories and mistakes can guide them or can be use as basis to avoid doing the same mistakes, though it's tough when you are already in the position as taking actions and making that hard decision to completely stop will always be a question if you can pull that trigger and completely quit away to avoid losing more.

The match you saw proves that luck does play a significant role in gambling. Even if we have a strong chance of winning, as you mentioned, the situation can turn around, and even those with strong odds can lose.

That happens a lot in sports betting. It's happened to me when I play dice, I say dice because I practiced that game a lot since I started in casinos and it's my benchmark But I like poker and I've studied it, but it's one of those things that you study and study and you can't have a formula to always win There are many ways to play the game Poker is the game that makes me think the most, and the best thing is because it's about quick decisions.

It's about taking quick decision that may lead you to win or the otherway around, there's no accurate formula than experienced that you already have from your previous games, no matter how good you think your strategy and patterns there's no assurance that you'll always win as there's always a chance being upset and the outcome will not favor your side.

Though, if luck permits and you are good in timing, you can cashout while you still in green and enjoy the profits that you carry after stopping.

The problem with this is when you have to think quickly to make a decision that's where you fail most often because you can make decisions based on emotions , and that's Dangerous because you can lose a lot of money. It's better to bet based on intelligence and reason I find it hard to suppress my emotions when I gamble, but it's necessary to make the money go further.

You’ve putting up a very big argument here about gambling which does has its advantage and disadvantages in real life. First of all, gambling is not a place one would rely on to help curb irresponsible decision making in life, real life scenario and the gambling life are incompatible, so it makes the experiment futile and can’t achieve anything meaningful when compared to one another to help want to curb real life decisions.

Doing this same experiment with gamblers because of the result expected from them during gambling is being monitored, then it will be a good way to manage their risk and also find out what external feelings forces them to make some kind of decisions that led to them losing in those games. It is a good experiment when experimented within the circle of gambling but not outside the gambling environment because they’re not compatible.

Gambling activities make one to become hardened and swift and when controlled, it calls for more discipline at making real life decisions.

This comes with a whole lot of exceptions, there people who gamble and suffers tis really terribly, they do not have the supposed hardiness to making decisions swiftly just like that, some loose all of their discipline and cannot effectively make real life decisions at some points so you cannot trust them with actual real life situations to be making decisions for, and for some others, they have had too many experiences while gambling that the leverage they get from all for such experience adds up to making them become better and firm at once while taking decisions on most real life matters. this is why i did said this has got a whole lot of exceptions with all of this.

Indeed, though practice can lead you to master the presence of mind taking difficult decisions, if you keep doing it limiting yourself in following your emotions, you'll find yourself doing the same exact thing when you needed to decide in any events or any situation, more on self-will and better grasp of your set target and limitations, though it's tough but still doable as long as you intend to practice and discipline yourself to make that strong move to stop.

We must understand that practising without inculcating on the importance of self discipline, may tempt us to do the same thing in essential circumstances. Conclusively, it is possible to say that the secret of making hard decisions is in reinforcing our inner strength and understanding where the borderline we have drawn is. In token of changing bad habits we need to apply the concept of consistent practise and make a decisive move to cease the bad habits regardless of the hard work involved. Our determination should be the basis out of change of behaviour.

The difficult thing is knowing how to stop if the player is very excited and winning, even if their record is very negative What I would do is stop with winnings and then play another day, realizing that by winning that money I can use it for my own benefit and enjoy it. It's better than continuing to risk it irresponsibly.

I used to leave my money in casinos when I was starting to gamble and I felt safe with the money there Not anymore, because it's very easy to spend it and leave my balance with very little money.

How do you think those who suffer from indecision in real life will not suffer from indecision in gambling? I think it is more important to eliminate indecision in real life than to eliminate indecision by gambling. If you observe in real life, you will see that those who could have managed their lives well in real life have faced losses when they gambled and are suffering from various types of indecision. Sometimes they gamble more and more due to emotions and become addicted to gambling. In that case, it is much more difficult for a person to eliminate indecision by gambling after facing so many things. Therefore, before gambling, a person must have the right decision in real life.
