===What are our needs?===
Any decision is aimed at selecting the appropriate actions to yield high [[ROI]] and valuable outcomes. The outcomes of the actions should best serve the needs of the decision makers. This is called the [[need-decision-action-reward cycle]]. So, in the first step of systematic decision making, we should try to understand what are the needs we try to fulfill are.
 
This can be done quite well by the Motivational Interview method. By investigating to the reasons and basic motivation to do things.
 
===What is the Vision?===
According to the [[need-decision-action-reward cycle |NDAR cycle]], a result of our action will yield a situation that will fulfill our needs. So we should try to establish a vision of the situation in which our needs will be fulfilled. For example, if we will be rich, we can buy everything we need. So we will vision ourselves as rich people.
 
Of course, visioning to high or to a place which is beyond our abilities will create an unrealistic vision, which will take us a lot of resources and may not mature. The Vision should be realistic, if we want to be able to build concrete solution to fulfill our needs.
