• Make decisions based on your goals and values, not on how you feel right now.

• Examine the longer-term and shorter-term trade-offs. Do you want to feel better for the next five minutes or the next five years?

• The search for perfection can derail your decision making.

Don’t aim for certainty. You don’t need it.

• Know how much information is enough.

• Important decisions often involve doubts. Accept your doubts and act anyway.

• See decisions as experiments. What will happen if you try this or that?

• Realize that you can absorb some losses if your decision proves wrong.

• Don’t look for too much reassurance from others. It can get in the way of making your own decisions.

• Count the “search costs” and “opportunity costs” of indecision. What else could you be doing in the time you spend researching a decision? What opportunities are you missing?

• Reject “sunk costs”—time, money, or energy you’ve put into a decision that no longer serves you. Decide to move on.
