I was asked this a few weeks ago and it’s actually a good question!

When you’re swamped with decisions to make and trying to sift through the chaff for the hay or maybe you’ve got family and friends that are against you and making you doubt yourself.

So, I’m going to share with you a few tips that I use to help me make decisions.

  1. De-stress – seriously, your brain ends up overloading and you just can’t think clearly, so meditate or go for a walk, punch a boxing bag, it doesn’t matter what it is, but it’s the thing that helps you just calm your brain down so that you can see things clearly.
  2. Don’t make decisions out of spite or to ‘prove something’ – if you’re feeling as though you want to ‘show’ someone or ‘teach’ someone a lesson, then it’s probably not the best idea to do that. You’re not making the decision for you, from a point of what’s best for you but in anger, refer to point 1!!!
  3. Ask your spirit guides for a sign to help you – Always ask a yes or no question so you can get a simple answer – the answer may be a feather, butterfly, rainbow, whatever you like but you need to accept that the answer will sometimes be no so you won’t see it. For example: Spirit Guides, should I leave my job? Yes, ‘is I will see a white feather within 48 hours. No, is ‘I won’t see a feather.’  And always be open to the interpretation of what you’ve asked for.
  4. Understand and accept that not everyone’s advice is for your own good – most people will offer advice on the basis of what they would do, not what is necessarily the best thing for you. Remember that.  Let’s say you want to sell everything, buy a motorhome and travel around your country for a couple of years.  People will say you’re mad (because they want the security of their home) or that it’s unsafe (because they’re scared to do it) rather than looking at you and what you’re going through / needing and basing their advice on what’s best for you.
  5. Don’t wait for people’s approval – never, ever base a decision because you want people to like you, or because it’s a popular decision. The hardest decisions you’ll make are when everyone thinks you’re doing the wrong thing, but deep down, you know it’s the right thing for you.
  6. Ask yourself ‘will this matter in a week’s time’ – we put so much emphasis on making decisions that in all honesty, may not even happen or that really aren’t that important in the scheme of our lives.
  7. What’s the worst thing that could happen – again, a lot of times we delay in making decisions because we’re scared about what could happen, but I want you to actually sit down and ask yourself ‘what’s the worst that could happen’, then write it down. Look at it objectively, is the bad, really that bad? What would you do if the worst did happen?

And lastly, when you make a decision, make that decision as wisely as possible in that moment and then forget about it, because the moment of absolute certainty will never arise.
