What I Need to Answer Before Making a Decision

When making a decision about our business or private life, sometimes we cannot be sure of our decision and its results. The results of decisions made in such distrust are often not what we want. A lack of confidence creates a more conducive environment for accepting negative consequences. The person easily gives up on his goal by saying, "It was clear from the beginning that this would happen," and becomes convinced that he set out with wrong predictions, and gives up immediately. However, if he had been sure of his decision and stood against the negativities, maybe I would have reached his goal.

Before making a decision, I can do a preliminary audit by asking myself the following questions:

1-Is my decision an instant decision, or has a reasonable time passed since this thought?

Most of the time, quick decisions made under the influence of another thought can mislead us. For this reason, it would be wise to wait 24 hours and review our decision for the last time before making a decision, although it may vary depending on the urgency of the decision.

2-How much space do dreams take up in my decision?

Of course, in every emotion that moves us, we also have some dreams. However, if our dreams constitute a significant part of our bases when making a decision, it is useful to pass this decision through a logical filter. Even if it is our dreams that fuel our decisions, it is the rational approach that will ensure their success.

3-Have I discussed my decision with people I trust?

After making a decision, there are numerous benefits to consulting with people we trust. Of course, the people we trust should be people whose minds and ways of thinking we trust. The opinions of people who are open to us and do not hesitate to tell us the negativity they see are more important to us than the opinion of a person who can lie in order not to upset us. Asking questions to people we already know what they're going to say won't help us.

4-Have I calculated the possible financial consequences of my decision?

While making some decisions, it may be necessary to calculate the financial support required by these decisions. If we have calculated the possible bad consequences of our decision financially, there is at least something we can do as soon as they happen.

5-Was I under the influence of intense emotions such as anger and revenge when making a decision?

Our emotions are positive in the sense of motivating us, but misleading in determining our course. A decision made in anger may be more to prove something to the person we are angry with than to benefit us. When our anger subsides, our decision becomes unfounded.

6- Is the number of unknowns more than the known ones in my decision?

It is necessary to be much more cautious about the information we use when making decisions, especially on subjects that we are not experts in. It is necessary to know that the more unknown points about a decision, the higher our risk will be.

7-Is my decision my decision?

If we think that there are people who guide us in the decision-making process, it is useful to reconsider our decision. If the decision is not our decision, the results, whether positive or negative, will not please us.
