Whats the best way to make a difficult decision?

Here is  an idea that might help. Get out a piece of paper. Write down the problem you have to make a decision about. \n\nMake two columns.  The first column can be what will be the postive results of your decision. The second column will be what will be the negative results of your decision.\n\nAdd you answers up in each column.  If there are more negatives than positives, you might want to rethink your decision, or accept that you may have to make a decision, that will have negative results, but you have to make that  decision, because it is in the best interest of yourself or someone else.  In that case, you make the decision, and accept the results, because sometimes we can't make a decision that is going to result in a satisfactory conclusion and make everyone happy at the same time.

All of you step back and take a breather. Spend a bit of time alone before doing anything as you still sound a bit confused about your feelings to be honest. Then you'll make a good decision

I think that you're the only person that can decide that.  You should sit down and write down what you want, what's wrong, how to solve it, and what is neccessary to solve the problem(s), what is at stake (kids, your happiness).  Clear your thoughts and make a decision when you are ready.\n\nDon't read books on topics such as "Is Divorce for you?"  "When should I get a divorce?"  "Is my marriage down the drain?"  "Stay for the kids?"\nOr anything similar.\nI don't think reading those type of books will help because when reading it you'll think "yeah, yeah, that sounds good" and be influenced by them instead of looking at yourself more clearly.\n\nBest of luck.

Well, you decide and then don't do what you decided.\nThis would take complete dedication to a lifestyle\nchange which can be most difficult.  I suggest a\nbuddy to check on you keeping you on the new track,\nor one of those self-help group sessions that you attend. (misery loves company). Good Luck

toss a coin and then see if the answer feels right --- if it doesnt than choose the other option \n\nmake a choice and move on

Just think of it this way, once you've made the decision, can you go back and change it?  Most times not, so once you've made a decision, trust yourself to know you did what you felt was right and move on. Thinking back won't fix anything, make your decision and move on from that, make the best of it.

You have already got half of your problem solved. You recognize that some of your life's choices were bad. Now to solved the other half of your problem, you have to STOP and THINK before you act. Don't just cater to your every whim, think about the consequenses of your action,and then decide whether you want to go with the  choice or not. If you decide the choice is bad,you'll have to muster all the will power you got to refrain from taking this course of action.At first, conditioning yourself to make the right choices will be hard, but after you do it more and more, it will become the natural thing to do. Good luck.

It is up to you. Do what you think is right. If you want to then go for it but if you dont want to then dont. It is up to you. Good Luck.

Remember that YOU are in charge so the answer can be whatever you decide it will be.  \n\nP.S. I hope the answer that you choose is "yes".

get on a site like aff.  you can look around, chat with other like-minded people, and the result will be that it gives you both a lot to think and talk about.  which should lead you in making a decision.  sometimes, it's not the doing but rather the thinking about it that's so much fun.  but whether you go forward or not, this will be a good place to start.

"In the words of the ancients, one should make his decision within the space of seven breaths. It is a matter of being determined and having the spirit to break through to the other side."\n\nThis is my favourite quote from Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai - a Jim Jarmusch film.\n\nDecision making is absolutely crucial to an organisation's succuss. Many times, decisions must be made in an instant.\n\nCheers,\nAlister\nhttp://www.MarketScience.com.au
