People who are too hasty, not wise, thoughtful, or timely can suffer for years. Therefore, many would like to learn how to make informed decisions, and not reap the bitter fruits of haste or procrastination.
Instructions
Step 1
Don't be afraid of solutions. If you want to gain experience and have a reputation (in your own eyes and in the eyes of others) as a wise and reliable person, then you need to make decisions. Accept that the decision may be wrong, but only by making it, you will learn to be more reasonable and gain invaluable experience.
Step 2
Do not put them on the back burner. Excessive delay can only complicate the situation: you will increasingly doubt and, as a result, the chances that the decision will be unreasonable will only increase. And others will doubt your reliability.
Step 3
Take your time to make decisions. Although it seems that this statement contradicts the previous one, it is not. You need to find a middle ground: wait for the time that you need to make a decision, but at the same time, when you have decided, do not hesitate, fearing to make a mistake.
Step 4
Check with others. It will be good if it is your friend or a person who understands the issue of interest to you and who can objectively assess the situation. Advice from the outside will never be superfluous, even if you are convinced of the right way. When making decisions without advice, there is always the possibility that it will not be reasonable and reasonable.
Step 5
Weigh the pros and cons. Only with the full amount of information can you make an informed decision. To speed up the situation, it is enough to write on a piece of paper all the pros and cons of each decision. It will also be wise to think about what they might turn out to be. This approach will help you see the full picture and decide which direction to take.
Step 6
Solve more than simple tasks. You need to regularly train your thinking abilities, then you can solve difficult issues faster and more correctly.
Step 7
Don't make decisions when you're stressed. Under the pressure of circumstances, the view can change and the wrong decision made in a state of nervous overstrain will make itself felt for a long time. In addition, the brain cannot fully solve several problems: if it is aimed at protecting the body from stress, then the likelihood that it will not be able to fully focus on decision-making increases.
