based as much on intuition (直觉) as on careful assessment of endless data.
Don’t delay making decisions.
Yes, there is a time to put off making a decision. Perhaps you need more information. 19 Or it’s likely that you wait for a less stressful time. Just don’t wait so long that the decision is made by your own indecisiveness.
Don’t be hard on yourself.
You decide to go on a voyage. You choose an expensive liner. Everything should work out just right. Only you didn’t expect a bug that ran around on the ship, making you and your family sick for five days. 20 But please remember it is unavoidable sometimes. A. Don’t spend too much time thinking. B. It is an important source of information. C. You may regret making such a stupid decision. D. Don’t count on emotion to make decisions. E. Maybe you wish to consult with your advisor.
F. Decisions force us to close the door on other possibilities. G. That means the skill of good decision-making counts a lot.
