Conscious and Unconscious Decision-making

A decision is a neurological process taken individually, collectively, or with a cyber brain that results in an action. The decision and hence actions can be taken consciously or unconsciously and the majority of actions are taken unconsciously.
These unconscious decisions and actions can be a result of:
- Evolutionary processes (involving emotions), or of
- Training whereby they are "ingrained".
- Corporate values can guide the unconscious actions if they are part of the corporate "DNA".
Conscious decisions could override unconscious ones. Without a neurological model, the understanding of decision making is limited.

Influence of Consciousness in Decision Making

I agree that the consciousness has a key role in making a decision. It is recorded in ancient wisdom if one is conscious of 23 factors like sleep, hunger, reflection, will etc of human beings then the decisions that are taken lead to success.
