Imagine you have to make an important decision, but you have very little time. What do you do first?

Select an answer:

I will stop and try to gather as much information as possible. I will rely on my inner feeling and intuition will guide me. I analyze the situation logically and try to minimize risk. I will consult someone I trust and seek help with my decision. I will try to imagine what impact the decision will have on me and others.

Imagine you receive two conflicting pieces of advice from two equally trustworthy people. How do you decide?

Select an answer:

I will go and check the facts and form my own opinion. I will trust the one who tells me what I already feel is right. I will make a compromise between both parties so that everyone is satisfied. I will choose the option that makes the most sense to me in the long run. I will let the decision sit for a while and see how I view it with some distance.

If you had to define your own decision-making method, what would best describe your approach?

Select an answer:

Rational analysis based on facts. Strong intuition and the feeling that "it is meant to be." A combination of both, but differently in different situations. I often rely on the experiences of others and their recommendations. I am guided by the value of the decision – if it is emotionally important, I go with my feelings; otherwise, I go with my mind.

You receive an offer for a new job opportunity, but you have to decide by tomorrow. How will you decide?

Select an answer:

I will make a list of pros and cons and rationally evaluate the situation. I imagine how I would feel in that job, and I decide based on the emotion. I will consider the opinions of my close ones, but in the end, I will make the decision myself. I will try to imagine myself in this job in a few years – how am I doing? If it excites me immediately, I'm in, if not, it means it's not for me.

I will conduct a detailed analysis and make a decision only after careful consideration. I trust my instinct – if I feel it's right, I go for it. I'll wait and see how the situation develops before making a decision. I will follow the recommendation of the expert I trust. I would rather invest in something that makes personal sense to me, even if it may not be the most advantageous.

In large life decisions...

Select an answer:

I thoroughly analyze all options and decide based on logic. I will be guided by my heart and what my intuition tells me. I am looking for a balance between reason and emotions. I will listen to various opinions and then make a decision after careful consideration. I often make decisions spontaneously because I believe that fate is guiding me in the right direction.

If you had to make a decision about something important for the entire team, how would you proceed?

Select an answer:

I will carefully listen to all sides and decide based on logic. I will evaluate what would be best for the majority based on my feelings. I am looking for a compromise to make as many people as possible satisfied. I will take the facts into account, but I will also allow space for people's emotions. I will trust my first impression – it is often correct.

When resolving a conflict between two close people, you would...

Select an answer:

You analyzed the situation objectively and helped them find a solution. He/She showed empathy and tried to understand the feelings of both sides. S/he was looking for a compromise so that no one would leave dissatisfied. I let them work it out themselves, but I would support both of them. I decided based on what my inner feeling tells me.

What would be the most difficult thing for you when making an important life decision?

Select an answer:

Lack of facts and information to assess the situation. The feeling of uncertainty about whether it is right for my heart. The fear that my decision will also affect other people. The concern that I will later regret the wrong decision. That I won't have enough time for proper consideration.

If you could choose between a life where all your decisions are completely logical and a life where all your decisions are based on emotions, which would you choose?

A life guided by logic – certainty is important to me. A life guided by emotions – I want to experience real feelings. Neither extreme – I need a balance between both approaches. Logic with space for emotions when the situation allows it. Emotions with a touch of rationality, so I don't completely lose myself.
