Your Goal

Make sure that you haven't chosen this decision for the wrong reasons

Try the following tasks

Ask yourself these questions and see if you have any uncomfortable, nagging thoughts and/or emotions

1. Did I do enough to find out what the situation is really like? (you can look again at the issues and questions you raised to see if you have dealt with these)
   
   
2. Have I honestly worked out what matters and fully considered the possible options?
   
   
3. Am I choosing this option simply to keep people happy who don't really matter or for improperly self-serving reasons? (Check that the decision appears fair and best overall regardless even if you were a different party -e.g. if you were one of the other people affected by the decision)
   
   
4. What you would feel like if you did this option? Vividly imagine yourself having done it, role play doing it, or tell other people what you are planning to do. Does it still feel like a wise decision? If not why not? Is it just nerves?
   
   
5. What sort of person would do this course of option; would you approve of this sort of person, would you want your children to be this sort of person, would someone you admire do this action?
   
   
6. Are my reasons and emotions in harmony about the solution that I have chosen? If not why not?
