For Simple Decisions Try This!

Greetings!

Recently I was trying to make a simple, non-life-changing decision while I was at a breakfast-type restaurant. Basically, I was trying to decide between two delicious looking entrées. Both meals were on the healthy side and equally appealing to my appetite, but the longer I mulled over which want I wanted, the harder it felt to make a choice. Luckily, I great idea flashed in my mind!

I acted on that idea and flip a coin! Guess what flipping the coin did? It provided me with instant relief. By flipping the coin over such a simple decision I was done spending time mulling over the two dishes!

Of course, keep your wits and understand that I am not suggesting we flip a coin over life-changing matters such as where to attend university, whether or not to get married, or what size vehicle to buy. Big decision require sincere thought and strategies. In another post, I will address the topic of making big decisions.

Staying in the present, most likely you will agree that for small decisions such as picking out which meal to purchase at a restaurant, which lip gloss or nail polish to wear, or picking out a tie to wear with a dress shirt - we should not expend to much time and energy. Since time and energy affects productivity, it's best to use them wisely.

The next time you find yourself trying to choose what food dish to order or which DVD movie to watch, reserve your time and energy and flip a coin!

I hope this tip helps you deal with making simple decisions. 

I blog about different topics (big and small) that affect our human experiences, so stayed tuned and take care!

Best wishes for our (yours and mine) optimal health and wellness,
