你也能成為決策大師Making Good Decisions
確定問題
首先，必需確定自己眼下面臨的問題是什麼。
例如，假設要決定大學念什麼科系；由於選擇太多，因此你必須決定對自己最好的主修課程。
腦力激盪
第二步是仔細思考自己的決定，並針對所有選擇進行腦力激温。
你應該鎖定不同專業課程的資料及其個別就業機會仔細研究；拿出紙筆好好整理一下自己的想法或許會有幫助。
勇敢選擇 每一個決定都有風險；天下沒有完美的選擇。
到頭來，終歸是你必須決定什麼最適合你自己。
積極行動 如果一再延遲採取行動，就會優柔專斷想要改變心意。
但是，要是你立即採取行動，就能目標明確地向前邁進。
是時候該放手一搏了！
Define the problem
First, you need to define the problem you are facing. For example, let's say you are deciding what to study in college. There are so many choices! So you have to decide which major is the best one for you.
Brainstorm
The next step is to think carefully about the decision and brainstorm your choices. You should research information about different majors and their career opportunities. It might be helpful for you to get out a paper and pen to organize your thoughts.
Choose what to do
There are risks with every decision. There is no perfect choice. In the end, you have to be the one to determine what is right for you. Act on your decision as soon as possible If you postpone taking action, you will be tempted to change your mind. But if you act right away, you can move forward with purpose. It's time to take a leap of faith!
