Hi,

It depends on what you try to convey. On one hand, one can certainly forget an impressive decision. On the other hand, one can forever remember an unimpressive decision. An 'impressive decision' is result-dependent (i.e., based on results to know whether a decision is impressive or not); while, an 'unforgettable decision' is result-independent (i.e., regardless of the outcome(s), one can still remember the decision one made).

Best wishes,
Hoa Thai
