A very common decision-making trap is to focus on too narrow a set of options. Use the following questions to generate more options:
- If you couldn’t take any of the options you wrote down in the previous question, what would you do?
- If money were no object, what would you do?
- What do your friends advise?
- How you might be able to combine your options to get the best of both worlds?
Assess your options on how well they do
- (a) social impact
- (b) personal fit
- (c) other factors for job satisfaction
One of the most pernicious enemy of good decision-making is “confirmation bias,” which is our tendency to seek out information that supports what we want to be true, while failing to seek out contradictory information.
Imagine that the option you ranked number 1, will actually turn out to be a terrible option. Where could you go looking for proof of that right now? Write down 1-2 ideas.
SO, If your best friend was choosing between the same options as you, what would you tell them to do?
