What will we eat? Which restaurant will we go to? What will we wear? Where will we invest? Which job will we go to? We have morning to evening this one job to take decisions, decisions, decisions, decisions, some more decisions. And I have seen many people miss opportunities in life because they are not able to take fast decisions. This video is about decision making and I'll give you a 5-step model on how to make better decisions, faster decisions. So in this video, I am going to share with you a model. There are 5 steps with which you will be able to take decisions faster and better. And after this, I have a rule that I will tell you about better decision making at the end of this video. So if you want to take better decisions in any area of life, if you want to take decisions fast, then let's understand the 5-step model. The first thing you should do to make better decisions is to write down all possible options. Write down all possible options. Suppose you are a student, you have completed your studies, you have completed your graduation, and now you have to think what should I do next? And I have seen students who are stuck in this dilemma for months, now what next? Solution is very simple, write down every possible option. Maybe you can go abroad, maybe you can do further studies. Maybe you can do further studies in your field or you can change your stream. Or you can do your own business. Or you can do a job. Or you can pursue your interest along with your job. Or you can start your own profession. So many options. Write down all possible options. So make the list as long as you want. But once your conscious, your conscious and your unconscious should be clear that I have a total of 11 options. That is step number 1. But when you are making this list, then if you have some friends who can give you some new kind of advice, then maybe some ideas are crazy for you. But when you are in step number 1, then you should make a long list. Don't decide that it is right or not. Will that work or not? What do we know? Which option will ultimately be right for us? Write down. When you are at step number 1, focus on only one thing. Put all your strength on one thing. Write down all possible options. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. Like that. Make a huge list. Step number 2. Eliminate as many options as you can. Think of every option for the next few minutes and the next few seconds. And some options will come out which will make you feel that this option cannot be done. He said do it. But maybe I don't like it. Maybe I don't have the funds for it. Maybe I don't have that many resources. Maybe it's not in my taste. Maybe I can't see my future in it. Whatever it is. There will be some things that you can eliminate immediately. So limit your options. If you had to have 12 things at once, it is difficult to decide from them. How do you buy a shirt for yourself? Or how do you buy a sari for yourself? You go to a shop. And you see maybe 30, 40, 50 options. You saw the shirt one after the other. There were a lot of shirts. So our step number was 1. See how many options are there. You saw all the options in that showroom. Now what do you do after that? Then you start eliminating what you don't like. What doesn't suit you. So how many of the 40 shirts do you find? 3, 4, 5. Right. That many saris you select. Then we come to step number 3. You need to write down. Now I have shortlisted these 3 or 4 options. What is the plus and minus of all of them? What is the benefit and what is the loss? You need to write it down. So you wrote 10 options. Shortlisted 3. Now if we do those 3. If you have taken that decision. So what is positive? What is negative? What can be the benefits? And what is the risk from it? What can be the losses? When you start writing this. Automatically. A clear picture will come in front of you. What should I do? What should I not do? And when you write this. With each option, its plus and minus, plus and minus, plus and minus. Then while doing this writing work itself. You will have this clarity. Which option should I go with? Which option should I not go with? If there is still no clarity. So the fourth step is very simple. Sleep over it. When you start working to take a decision. Then your consciousness and unconsciousness. Both of them start working. To take that decision in a better way. So if you have time. One day, two day, three day, four day. You have decided. Everything is final. But even after that, if you have time. One or two, three days. Then don't go ahead and finalize that decision. Let your unconscious work for you. Your subconscious will keep working for it. Get some more information. And in three or four days. You will be inclined towards any option. There will be some options. For which you will start seeing more short-coming loopholes. So three, four days. Five days. You can give a week's time if you want. Right. If you have time. And last step number five. After this whole process. Whatever decision you feel is right. Then you should go ahead. And give your 100% to that decision. And then take the decision. And move forward. No matter how much you go into detail. Every decision will be right. No one can guarantee you that. Biggest business owners. Biggest politicians. Biggest decision makers. Advisors. Strategists. And all those experienced people also can make mistakes. So you can also make mistakes. You have done your best. And in this best situation. Whatever you feel is right. Whatever you understand. Go ahead. And move forward with that decision. I can give you now two rules. That you should remember. Number one. Start now. Improve later. Start now. Improve later. So whatever decision you feel is right. Go ahead with that. And when you start moving forward. You will start getting more information. Then a lot of things will become clearer. You will keep improving them there. You will keep optimizing them. And second. If you want to increase the ability to take decisions. Take better decisions. And take decisions quickly. If you want to increase this ability. Then do you know how it increases? Your ability to take better decisions. Develops when you make more decisions. So these are five simple steps. And two formulas. So I will summarize it for you very fast. Write down all options. Eliminate as many as possible. Sleep over it. And five. Whatever you decide is based on this formula. Just go ahead and do it. And two. Basics I told you. Start now. Improve later. And number two is. Ability to take better decisions. Will develop when you take more decisions. Right.
