15 Nov Facing a career opportunity that requires you to make a decision between staying where you are or relocating to a new job
Maybe it’s deciding between staying on a University course for the next 2 years or to change courses now
Or perhaps it’s deciding if you should remain in a relationship that feels ok but not quite filling you with joy or energising you towards being a better you.
Life can be full of challenges and opportunities where both situations require you to consider the pros and cons of the options available to you. It is important to do your research about each option in order to make informed decisions that would best serve your purpose or goals in life. However, it’s a fine line between making an analysis and over analysing a situation that ultimately leads to inaction with analysis paralysis.
Sometimes it is easier to keep researching and waiting for more new information to arise than to actually make a decision or take action, and when a deadline passes and some options are no longer available. You end up having only one option that you can take, then you tell yourself that things just happened before I could do anything about it.
Here at My Favourite Physio, our team strives to be proactive and are trained to approach life’s challenges and opportunities with courage and decisively. Here is the 3 Step Approach to Decision Making our team Uses:
1. Consider all parties involved regarding a given situation, including the facts of the situation and the perspectives of each person.
2. Determine what information are facts and what are emotional responses to the facts. Consider the impact and consequences of each fact and emotion.
3. Set a deadline on when a decision will be achieved. Determine the actions that will be taken to reach the decision and the actions required to carry out the decision.
