The easy way to the right decision

How do we know if we're making the right decision? It's easier than you think.
The headline for this article is misleading but it’s what people like to see. Why is it misleading? Because we can’t know the future so we can’t know if a decision is “right”. However, we can make GOOD decisions and good decisions are what improve our circumstances.
How to decide if a decision is good
This is simple. The answer to this question is all you need: “based on the information I have, does this decision make sense?”
If our decision makes sense based on all the information we have, it’s a good decision. If in the future it turns out to not be the right decision, we pivot.
You probably want me to wax poetic and give you two pages of “tools” and “methods” and whatnot. But, I won’t because it’s not required. Because everything you need to know is in the answer to that critical question: based on the information I have, does this decision make sense?
Pro tip:
Delay a decision as much as is responsibly possible. This allows you to gather as much information as possible so you can make an informed decision. What does “responsibly” mean? It means either the point at which you absolutely have to make the decision or the point at which the decision is causing you too much emotional strife.
