Most people can relate to the feeling of indecision when facing a choice. This article provides three key strategies that can help increase decisiveness:
- Avoid Outcome Think: Stop focusing on the outcome of a decision and instead focus on the actions that can be taken to achieve that outcome. Outcome Think is a common thinking error that causes unnecessary anxiety and indecision.
- Keep It Simple and Limit Your Options: Too many options can lead to overthinking, decision fatigue, and analysis paralysis. Keeping things simple and limiting options can help make decision-making easier and more decisive.
- Detach From the Situation: The fear of regret can cause indecisiveness. Detaching from the situation and focusing on the present moment can help to reduce anxiety and increase decisiveness.
