We all have to make decisions
every now and then. However, some big decisions make us go sleepless in the
night and that is when we need help. We struggle because most decisions not
only have an element of uncertainty attached to them but also have a fear of
losing something once we decide on one option and leave the others. However,
here are a few tips that will help you easily take a difficult decision:
·
Take the
decision when your mind is in a good state
It is obvious but
we will mention this point because when we are to take a tough decision we ought
to go sleepless and keep postponing the decision till the last minute. This
makes us take the decision in hurry and a confused state of mind. Thus it is
advisable that we take adequate sleep, meditate, do some leisure activity or
anything that relaxes our mind and then decide.
·
Weigh
pros and cons on a sheet of paper
Take a blank
sheet of paper and write the pros and cons of each possible option, it will
make everything crystal clear in front of you. Deciding would then be easy.
·
Pretend
as if you are advising someone
It might sound a
little funny but try this and it will help. Think that you are advising your
friend in the same situation and the best solution will automatically strike
you.
·
Instincts
matter
Give your
instincts some space and take the decision only when you strongly feel about
the same, and not because your family or friends feel that a particular option
is the best.
·
Experience
counts
There is no harm
in taking advice from someone who is experienced and will speak in your favor.
·
Stick to
the decision once taken
Once you decide,
stick to your decision and feel confident. Never think that some other option
would have been better.
Hope you make the best possible
decision in the given situation with the above tips.
