SAT Essay: Are people better at making observations, discoveries, and decisions if they remain neutral and impartial?

Life, in effect, is just this never-ending baragement of choices and decisions, leadership, though developed only by some, is universal in nature. At some point, it becomes necessary for all men and women, to lead, because all are required to choose, and in this, to lead their life through the carrying out to fruition, these decisions. And Thus, it becomes germane, the task of deciding (yet again) how to decide. (The need for this is very telling of its importance and relevant to the call of leadership afore mentioned). One way of making decisions is in this sort of pseudo pacifism of "neutrality", of externally staying firm in the middle of your decision. The other, contrastingly, is sticking, excruciating at time, by one point, choosing one and standing by it. Both can be useful at different times, but in the everyday and lower-scale situations of our lives, the latter is far more efficient.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, one of the presidents of the United States in 1932-1945, was in a distinct position of authority, though there was fierce opposition at both ends. He frolicked impartially in regards to international affairs, trying to appease the isolationist populous, but the polar ends between internationalism and isolationism cannot be met in the middle. Finally, at the beginning of the 1940s his responses and attempted actions shifted, as he began to side with this interventionist isolationism. Then and only then, could things get done. While often it feels as though staying in the middle makes one liked by all, this is an impossible task. Men will always have others who dislike or hate him, and through a partial and decisive approach these enemies will show up, but as it is said, "keep your friends close and your enemies closer". It is far better to fight on a defensive ground supporting one thing, then to wallow in the hopeless fight for universal gratification.
In smaller situations than the presidency, this practice of partial, and at times stubborn decisiveness, is often seen by the leaders of any group. At school, for instance, group leaders are seen setting the guidelines and sticking with them for their observations and discoveries. They won't take lip, and they are able to stay in power because of their commitment to their idea and the proof they make for their case. They fight a battle, as we all must do, but by knowing their territory and their enemies, they hold all the cards.
Consequently, as we as people make observations, decisions, or, discoveries of any nature, it is crucial, that you abstain from this gray area of the spectrum, that you are blinded to change, but that, you stand, in confident leadership at the head ready to defend, willing, to grow, destined to discover!
