Do You Have A Golden Gut To Be An Effective Decision Maker?

How important the decisions we make? Decisions has the power to change your life forever. Some decisions are good, some are brilliant, some bad and some plain disastrous. Of course, we're conscious of the major decisions we make in our lives because they cause us the  most stress. However, all your hopes, dreams and goals- depend on your ability to make wise decisions.

Yet strange things is, nobody seems to know how to make the best decision. Almost nobody knows how he or she makes decisions. We don't have a way to make it. Usually, something comes up, we kick it around and it feels right and we can afford it so we make a move.  But the question is, "is it right to follow your guts and instincts?"

An important thing happens every time we make decision because we tend to come closer in knowing who we really are. We become in essence, the sum total of all the decisions we make in our life. To make it right, we must be be in the right place at the right time. Yet there's more important than that: " it's knowing you're in the right place at the right time. Most people make a decision based on how they feel about it. Confident decision makers know how to make decisions effectively so they're much better in knowing the step in moving forward.

Sometimes, the best decision is the decision that you don't make. You have to know when to let someone else make decisions for you. Many managers can make good decisions instinctively and they don't know how they're doing it. It's never been a magic after all. Unconsciously, they are the type of people who were shaped based on their experience and once a situation strikes out, they tend to respond right and it comes very natural. We can say that it's a thing of the past.

The willingness to admit you can be wrong is also the key to confident decision making.Be willing to make mistakes and be willing to let other people make mistakes because not every decision offers a perfect solution. Anyway, deepest lessons came from hardest pain.

Lastly, the key to intuitive decision making is saturating yourself with information about decisions and then chunking that information to make rapid reasoning. Generating intuition may come naturally within you or you may have to work at it. So. do you have a golden gut?
