The ability to make choices in a given situation allows a person to control important matters. It helps in the little things: often a person thinks too long what to eat or what to wear. Logical actions make the future predictable, and the quality of life higher. What to do in order to make the right decisions? After all, sometimes it can be very difficult.
Instruction manual
one
In any case, it's best to start by prioritizing. Think about what you are striving for, what result you expect from your decision, whether you can achieve the desired result as a result of a specific choice.
2
Try to make a choice from the contrary, excluding those options that will lead you away from the intended path to the side. Mentally think over all the consequences of your act, taking into account all sorts of “buts” and “ifs”.
3
Take action without delaying the decision. The process of collecting the necessary information should not go on indefinitely. Do not make your research on the topic redundant, because the human brain is capable of processing a limited amount of data. Stop in time so as not to overload your head with unnecessary information.
4
Not every decision is subsequently the most correct. However, this does not mean at all that it is necessary to let go of the initiative. Tell yourself that at that time you found the only right way out. Awareness of the rationality of your action in this situation will give you greater confidence in your abilities.
5
Very often, life requires lightning-fast decisions from a person, without giving time for thought. They say that when you don’t know what to do, do as your conscience tells you. Often try to put yourself in the place of another person, "pretend" to yourself your actions. If you learn to better understand the needs of outsiders and empathize with them, at the right time your conscience will help you make the right decision.
6
Try to change yourself step by step. For example, you used to quarrel with a friend over where to go, but now you are throwing a coin so as not to argue about the place of rest, because the main thing for you is communication. You could not get ready to open an account, because you did not know what criteria to use in choosing a bank. Now you have found a financial specialist and received good advice. You have long dreamed of changing hair color and making a short stylish haircut, but everyone did not dare to do so. Yesterday you signed up with a hairdresser for a friend whose hairstyle you really like.
7
If you are naturally shy, try on a different type of behavior to become more determined. Try to act like an extrovert: make independent decisions more confidently and actively. Remember that your own choice, even if not the best, will make you happier.
