"Sich entscheiden" has the connotation of you having the opportunity between several options to choose from.

Mother to the kid: "Jetzt entscheide dich endlich welche Sorte du willst" ("Please decide which one you want"), when standing before a vending machine and the kid has been invited to chose a drink.

Kid to his mother: "Ich entscheide mich für Coca Cola ("I want/select/choose CocaCola")

So, the mother in the first example doesn't have to choose herself (the word "sich" in "sich entscheiden" implies that something is going on with oneself, not someone else, only oneself in most cases), but is telling telling her kid to make up his mind, to decide for himself.
You can use "entscheiden" for yourself if you are a judge for example. "Ich entscheide auf unschuldig" ("I declare him innocent"), but it is a rather technical term.
Or if you are being a politician and making laws "Ich entscheide, dass die Steuern erhöht werden" ("I declare the taxes to be raised"). So it is rather a declaration.

Well, hope to have explained it a bit with the spontaneous knowledge that I have. :P
