Imagine that you are faced with an important decision, but you have too many options. What is your first impulse?

Select an answer:

I will start looking for more information to have a better overview. I intuitively choose one option that seems to make the most sense at first glance. I will wait for some options to "resolve" themselves or fall away. I will ask for the opinion of someone I trust. I feel anxious and I can't make a decision.

How do you feel when you have to make a big decision with multiple options?

Select an answer:

Excited because I love challenges. Restless because I am afraid I will make the wrong decision. Confident, I know that I will ultimately make the right choice. I'm tired, such situations exhaust me a lot. Paralyzed, I can't move on.

What does "the right decision" mean to you?

Select an answer:

Those that bring the best long-term results. Those that I feel are right in the given moment. Such that gives me the greatest freedom. Also, which is safe and minimizes risks. Those that make the happiest people around me.

Imagine that you are pressed for time and need to make a choice immediately. How do you react?

Select an answer:

I will choose what comes to my mind first – I trust my intuition. I will choose the most rational option, even though with uncertainty. I will try to negotiate more time to make a decision. I will decide based on what the majority of people think. I won't do anything, I'd rather avoid the decision.

What frustrates you the most when making a decision between multiple options?

Select an answer:

Fear of making a mistake. The feeling that I never have enough information. The pressure that I have to decide quickly. The awareness that whatever I choose, I will miss out on something else. The fact that I have to choose for myself and I can't rely on anyone else.

How do you most often process your options before making a decision?

Select an answer:

I will write down all the pros and cons. I will consult with someone who has more experience. I will intuitively eliminate those that do not suit me. I imagine the future with every possibility and observe which one suits me best. I'm waiting for the decision to somehow crystallize on its own.

How do you feel after making the decision?

Select an answer:

Satisfied, I know it was the right thing. Unsure, I keep thinking whether I made a mistake. Relieved, mainly because I have made my decision. Excited, I am looking forward to the new opportunities that it will bring. Indifferent, decisions are just an unavoidable part of life.

Imagine you find out that you’ve made the "wrong" choice. How do you react to that?

Select an answer:

I will learn and continue. I'm angry with myself for not having done it better. I’m trying to fix it or change direction. I am looking for external factors that led me to that decision. I feel frustrated, but I will accept it as a part of life.

What impact do the opinions of others have on your decisions?

Select an answer:

I’m happy to hear them, but I will decide for myself. If I respect them, their opinion often influences my decision. I'm trying not to take them into account, but sometimes they influence me. I often follow what others think to avoid taking risks. Most of the time, I make decisions completely independently; I am not interested in the opinions of others.

What is your greatest achievement in decision-making?

Select an answer:

That I stand by my decision. That I chose the option that had the best impact. That I made my decision quickly and efficiently. That I felt good while making the decision. That I avoided negative consequences.
