Different dress codes have been designed with the idea of making people act differently. 
The dress controls the person inside it. Hence I certainly feel that dress dictates the 
behavior of a person wearing it.

I totally disagree with the statement that decisions that people make immediately are 
always wrong. Some decisions need to be made after careful thought, while some 
decisions have to be made immediately due to the limit of time.
In the real life, people don't always have enough time to think about what kind of 
decisions they need to make and how many options they have in order to reach the 
optimum result. Time does restrain people from making decision after careful of thought.
The first case happens in the stock exchange market. The price of stock changes every 
minute, even every second. The brokers need to make immediate decision to buy or sell.
If they spend a long time on making decision, they will lose chance to make a lot of 
money, the stocks will never be available when they make final decisions. Even though 
quick decisions might make brokers to lose some money, but there are still 50% chance to 
make much money. If they don't make a quick decision and miss the chance, they will 
never make money. So from this case, we can conclude that immediate decisions are not 
always wrong.
Another case comes from sports. During the soccer game, the team members usually 
have been assigned duties and given strategies before the game by the coaches. But during 
the last 5 minutes, two teams have the same score, one of team must win this game so that 
they are eligible to attend the semi-final, at the same time the coach of this team has no 
more chance to give his team member more suggestions. Therefore, the team members 
need to change their old strategies on their own so that they will have chance to win. But 
if members take more time than 5 minutes to make decision, they might make a best 
decision, but this best decision won't work at all since time is up. They will absolutely 
lose the chance to win. However, if they make a quick decision, it is very possible for 
them to win this game and get into the semi-final.
From the above two cases, we can conclude that the statement that decisions that people 
make immediately are always wrong is not right. Sometimes people need to take the 
chance to make decision immediately so that they can gain something instead of 
completely losing.
