Don’t Know What To Choose? 10 Things To Do When You Are Being Indecisive!

By- Shreya Sharma

If you are one confused, indecisive soul like me, I can feel you. You will be confused about every small and big thing. It will be hard for you to decide what to eat, planning your holiday, switching your job or any other major life decision. It is difficult to make decisions and decide which one is better for us. Here are 10 things to do when you are being indecisive.

1. Toss it off

You can flip a coin when it comes to deciding about small things like whether I should eat a pizza or a sub. This is one easy and the best way to decide when you are confused about one small issue. This way your fate will decide what you should eat.

2. Decision on the basis of what you see

Again, it is about the minor decisions. If you are confused about if you should walk down the road or take an auto, then say something like, “I will walk if the next person I see is a woman, and take an auto if it is a man”. This will occupy your mind with playing rather than struggling to make a decision.

3. The qualities you admire

We all have role models and we like to have some of the qualities they possess. When you are confused, think about what they will do and do it.

4. Yes or no?

When you have to take some big decision of your life, the most logical way to decide is to see the negative and positive aspects of the situation. List down all the things in a table and see which option outweighs the other.

5. Ask a random person

To make a minor decision, you can ask for the opinion of a random person. If you are confused between the black or white shoes, then ask the closest person to you. Hearing someone else’s choice helps you realize your choice.

6. Your first thought

Notice the first thought that comes to your mind when the decision is presented to you. Your first thought is the truest choice for you that is often covered up with doubts and uncertainties.

7. Talk to your friend

When you are unsure about what to do, tell them about the choices and receive a feedback from them. This will help you make a decision.

8. Fast forward

See how you would feel depending on the choice you made. Are you happy staying at home for work or staying at home is not your kind of thing?

9. Put it out there

Look out for the signs regarding your choice. Ask for a sign from the universe, put it out there and see what you get back. You might get a sign regarding what you should do.

10. Go with your instinct

Take some time alone and see what comes up. Chill for a bit and your gut feeling will make it evident to you about your feelings and choice.
