How To Make Big Decisions
🔹 Step 1: Is the decision reversible?
No → Proceed with more caution.
Yes → You can afford to be more flexible or daring.

🔹 Step 2: How much time do you have to decide?
For irreversible decisions:
No time → Choose the safest option.
Don’t take risks that haven’t been properly thought out.
Have time → Evaluate uncertainty:
A little uncertainty → Choose the option with the highest long-term ROI (Return on Investment).
A lot of uncertainty → Take risks, but avoid those with no path to recovery.
For reversible decisions:
Have time → Ask yourself:
“What would I regret not doing in 10 years?”
→ Always take the risk if fear of judgment is holding you back.
No time → Go with your gut.
