Sometimes we're faced with difficult choices that seem impossible to resolve. Whether it's choosing between two jobs, deciding whether to move in with someone or even making a decision about diet, these situations can often be stressful.
Ask yourself why you're making this decision.
Before you make any decisions, ask yourself
why you're even doing them. This will help you understand the reasons behind your
actions and how they might affect others. It also helps you avoid regretting
your decisions later on. For example, You want to buy a new computer, and you find 2 good models but you can't decide which one to buy. Ask yourself why you are making this decision. You want to buy a new computer that works better than the previous one. Now you have a starting point. Now look at the two models again and find out which one of them is the better one. Once you finally know which one is the better choice, you decide to buy that one. So you always have to think everything through, especially with important decisions.
Think about how it will affect others.
If you're making a decision that can or probably will affect other people, think about how big the impact on them will be. Will it benefit them? Will
it harm them? How will it affect their lives? What will happen if you choose
option A instead of B? Just remember to always stay calm and overthink every decision. Ask yourself these questions again and again so you can finally make a decision that you think is the right one. Also, keep in mind that every decision you make affects other people in some way or another. But it's better to choose the decision, which affects people the least so that there are no problems afterward.

Look at both sides of the argument.
It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking
that you only need to consider one side of an issue when making a decision.
However, by looking at both sides of the debate, you'll be able to see more
clearly where each side stands. This will help you decide whether you agree
with either position or whether you feel neutral. Who knows, maybe the decision that you wanted to make beforehand changes because you looked at the other side of the argument and discovered that it's actually a better decision to make. We are again on the topic of staying calm and thinking about everything possible before you make a final decision, and that also means looking at both sides of an argument.
Don't let emotions cloud your judgment.
If you're feeling emotional, try to take a
break and think things through logically. You might find that the answer
becomes clearer once you remove emotion from the equation. Let's say you want to buy a really good album that you discovered online. So you want to buy it on CD and go online and immediately buy it because you really like it and just want to hold it in your hands as soon as possible. But while doing that, you need to remember to actually look deeper into the product. The sound quality of the CD may be mediocre, which would destroy the hearing experience. A more clever thing you could've done was to gather more information about the product. That includes reading reviews, reading the description of it online, making sure to buy a new one, not a used one, and so on. Then, when you have all the information you need to make your final decision, you can be assured that it will be a good decision that you won't regret afterward.
Be open-minded.
It's easy to fall into a rut when making
decisions. Instead of being open to new ideas, we often stick with our old
habits and routines. This can lead us down a path where we feel trapped by our
choices. Try to be more open-minded and consider other possibilities.
