Do you Decide things Easily, or do you take a long time to do it? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 97/100. LightninStrike (2499)   ranked 70 out of 25,812 in people1 year ago

I think that in general i'm fast to decide things. Obviously, there are times when i take a while, or ask for other people's opinions etc. But in most things i think i don't mindboggle too much, i find it unhealthy really, and doesn't help me much to make the right decision.

What about you? do you decide things easily or do you take a long while of doubting and such?

Making decisions is always hard for me. I'm sure it has to do with confidence in myself. It always takes me days to decide what to do...if I have the time. If I have to make a quick decision I usually call my mother or daughter to see what they think and I'll go from there. I don't like it when I have to make a decision on my own.

looking for help or advice is not bad, even though one must be able to know that he or she has to do certain things on themselves sometimes, and the final decision is theirs. I hope that with time you get there:)

Depends on the importance of the individual case, if it's just about purchasing some household things, i don't usually think too much. But recently i spend a long time to think about a decision, it's about moving and start working in a foreign country. I have to give up everything i am having now, leaving family and friends to a place that is 100% new to me. It took quite some time to think about it.

It's the little things that take me forever. What do I want to eat for lunch? What am I going to buy at the store? What am I going to wear today? Those kinds of decisions can take me forever, and I quibble and change my mind and ask opinions...

But when it comes to the big decisions in life, it seems like I always just know.=)


myLot reputation of 97/100. LightninStrike (2499)   ranked 70 out of 25,812 in people  1 year ago

well if you have a clear idea of what to do in main things,then it's all fine..those are the things that really matter, after all. thanks for replying lecanis.


myLot reputation of 95/100. lecanis (7207)   ranked 149 out of 25,812 in people  1 year ago

*nods* I think it's because I have a very specific honor code and so most major things I've already thought about and answered in developing that code. I hope that makes sense.=p

Again I'm like you in this.I tend to make my mind up pretty quickly and stick with it - in fact dithering and indecisiveness tends to irritate me! LOL! If it's a very big decision, then I do look at the "pros and cons" first, and sometimes make notes or lists so that I can see more clearly which decision I want to take, but I don't hover between one or the other at all - once I've thought about it, then I make up my mind - and that's it!!!

For important decisions I will normally take my time to make sure I make the right decision so I'll have time to think about it. But for smaller decisions I like to go ahead and just decide. I don't like waiting around and stressing over small things. I would rather be spontaneous and just go with what I think is right.


myLot reputation of 97/100. LightninStrike (2499)   ranked 70 out of 25,812 in people  1 year ago

see you're opposite to other people who have replied here: They're fast for main and slow for the rest, and you're the opposite. As long as it works for all of us... hehe.

I am one of those who take quite a lot of time to decide, I mean, like with everyone else it depends on what I have to decide. When it comes to everyday things like what to wear or what to have for dinner or whether to do this or that on the following weekend I am impulsive and also known for changing my opinion on it last minute sometimes.

But when it comes to really important issues I am one of these thinkers who make a pro and contra list and think about the decisions ahead really hard.
When things go wrong later I can honestly say I did all I could not to mess the whole thing up and the whole issue went wrong inspite of this. Its better than having to admit, I simply did the first thing that came to my mind

It depends, sometimes I take awhile to decide what I want.

It really depends on circumstances. Sometimes it is very easier to decide. And sometimes I have to think over the cause effects of decision to be taken. Decision making is really a crucial part. We should just think over before any decision making which involves some ups and downs.


myLot reputation of 97/100. LightninStrike (2499)   ranked 70 out of 25,812 in people  1 year ago

obviously there are always things to consider when u make an important decision, but i believe that with crucial decisions it happens that they're very easy to decide about. The hard part is assuming the consequences of that decision..there lies the hard part.

It depends on what it is. some thing big that could change my entire life I would think very hard and weight the pros and cons very carefully. However if it is something silly like what to eat for dinner then I would of course just go with what feels right at the time.


myLot reputation of 97/100. LightninStrike (2499)   ranked 70 out of 25,812 in people  1 year ago

well what you just said sounds reasonable...thanks frizzle:)
