SUMMARY:
——————–

When uncertain or afraid, how do we free ourselves from delay, make good decisions, and take decisive action?

1. Make decisions sooner:

It’s easier to make decisions earlier than later. For example, if you hate your job, make a decision to leave sooner. Yes, be judicious and and collect information…but don’t get into analysis paralysis or become scared of change. Set a date and prepare. Making bold decisions for yourself is the secret to moving your life forward. Ask,”What’s decision have I been putting off in my personal life? What decision have I been waiting to make at work? What decision do I need to make in my relationships?” Avoidance may be the best short-term strategy to avoid pain and conflict, but it is also the best long-term strategy to ensure suffering. Stop putting it off, make that decision and stick to it.

2. Set criteria:

Criteria means you look at your decision making from three perspectives: What’s good for you? What supports other people around you? What should the universal rule be for everyone faced with this decision? This means you seriously contemplate if decisions are right for you, honoring of others, and generally good for most people. What other criteria could you set? Create a “cheat sheet to good decision-making” with your own criteria and keep it by your computer and in your wallet. Consult it at every important decision.

3. Do intelligent research:

Bad decisions are often a result of acting without any information, listening to the wrong people or forcing a false choice. Intelligent research means collecting as much information as possible from informed people. There’s nothing you want to achieve or overcome in your life that someone hasn’t already achieved or overcome. Before you make your decision, go out and consult other informed, happy, smart, joyous, accomplished people who have done what you want to do. Often, you’ll find it’s not just a matter of choosing A or B, but rather there are a multitude of choices available to you.

  1. Listen you don't make a decision based on what is good for other people you make a decision for yourself right you don't listen to people and the experts or sometimes lying to you just look at brokers so you make a decision out of your heart do not misinform people it's your heart you understand

  2. My indecision paralysis problem is that there is always a choice ABC & possibly the entire alphabet plus some. Always options I may not have thought of no matter how many years I research, brainstorm, meditate about… and miss out on by not being aware of yet… I have no idea how or when to draw the line and decide and even if I do, just commit and begin not disregard retract revert back into possibilities mode… Meanwhile, brained my whole entire life away… halp me please! ?

  3. This video was amazing and very relevant to my situation. I recently moved to Atlanta from California to open up a coffee shop as a partner and manager. I have made the decision to leave the coffee shop and go back to California to finish my studies in music. But now I am getting a better offer to stay at the coffee shop which would set me up a bit better for the future but on the other hand, it’s not what I am passionate about and I don’t like being so far away from friends and family. If anyone can give me advice on making the right decision, I would greatly appreciate it

  4. Well said Brendon ……………..keep these in mind when making future decisions ……..you say it all in simple way …………….easy to understand but rich meaning in it …………going to tell my friends to start off their day with ur talks ……….keep giving such meaningful talks ………….here is from muscat ……sangeesanam

  5. "Make a decision and stick to it, commit to it. Don't switch so quickly"
    Two minutes earlier…"if u hate ur job don't wait. Switch, quit it. Don't wait just do it."
    ….But u forgot that a decision landed him at that job and that's maybe why he is waiting before making rash and quick decision to quit..

  6. i think with my brain( what is the best plan) and feel with my heart( long term impact ) and combin them and make the best decision…… my heart and brain join each other and patner when i make decision☝….?… i' m very good at making the best decision possible

  7. ?ok I love carbs, I didn’t realize how much my body needs it until I got on the scale.. being under 100 I want to eat all the carbs. I cut them out for breakfast & most lunches um.. no wonder I have no energy!

  8. In 2015

    This is my story. I stumbled on this video as a Ad on my TV in 2015. It changed my life since then.

    I was chugging a 16oz beer on sunday morning. I was going through some immigration issues for USA. I watched this video till the end.

    After that i made this decision to stop drinking and work on myself. Thank you brian for making this video.

    Not only this video but this whole series of video is my all time favorites.
