They tend to be complicated

Report 0 Downloads 91 Views
Difficult decisions tend to be difficult simply because our level of experience in dealing with them is much less than with easy decisions. This lack of familiarity or experience can leave us floundering. Our brains process patterns and try to cross match previous experiences with current situations. We can compensate for this by becoming better decision makers. One of the best ways to accomplish this is by comprehending why difficult decisions are so difficult. This knowledge is the best tool to maximizing positive outcomes in unfamiliar territory.

they all involve a certain degree of unpredictability

This unpredictability makes choosing among various options much more risky. Deciding what to eat for a meal is easy. We know what to expect from the choices. Imagine how much more difficult a decision choosing what to eat would be if one of your choices would randomly cost you $100 or killed you.

but that’s too expensive! and i’m so hungry!

There are many choices. Most of these choices involve outcomes that, to one extent or another, are unpredictable. Also, most of these choices impact on each other. Using our previous example, imagine how difficult choosing what to eat would become if, say, deciding to have a sandwich meant you could never eat sushi again. Yet, at the same time, you also knew that eating a sandwich was the meal option least likely to cost you $100.
