A person is constantly faced with the need to make this or that choice. This situation accompanies him literally at every step: in the store, when it is necessary to decide what and in what quantity to buy, at work, in family life. It's good if we are talking about some insignificant problem that will not entail serious consequences in the event of an error. Well, what if the question is really important? If the cost of a wrong decision can be high? Some people in such a situation may get confused, delay making a decision. How to act correctly?
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, convince yourself that the problem will not disappear from the fact that you are dodging a solution under all sorts of pretexts, wasting time. The decision will still have to be made, so it's better to do it sooner rather than later.
Step 2
Of course, "earlier" does not mean "hastily." Think it over carefully. If there are several options for solving a particular issue, problem, carefully consider them, not missing a single one. Try to objectively analyze both the pros and cons of each option, and choose the most optimal one.
Step 3
If the question is really difficult, especially if you yourself feel and acknowledge that you do not have enough knowledge or information to make a decision, seek advice from specialists whose opinion you can trust. And in general, whenever possible in such situations, one should consult with knowledgeable people. As folk wisdom says, "one head is good, and two is better."
Step 4
Hesitation, delay in decision-making is mainly characteristic of shy, impressionable people. Even if you are absolutely sure that you are right, and you are still subconsciously disturbed by the thought: “What if I'm wrong?”, Take courage and make a decision. You also hesitate because you are very afraid of getting into a funny, ridiculous situation because of a mistake. Such people would not hurt to engage in self-hypnosis. These techniques are relatively uncomplicated, but can lead to good results rather quickly.
Step 5
In the same situation where a decision must be made as quickly as possible (for example, in the event of a large-scale accident, natural disaster and similar situations that threaten the life and health of people), hesitation and indecision are simply unacceptable. You must overcome your doubts with an argument: the harm from a possible mistake and its consequences will in any case be lower than from inaction.
